What
is this display about?
Technology can play a role in helping
students to reflect on their achievements and the skills that they have
developed during their time at University. Tools like PebblePad (an online
e-portfolio tool) offer staff the opportunity to develop electronic workbooks
to structure and encourage students to reflect on the knowledge that they are
developing and to move beyond knowledge acquisition. Open Badges offer a way of
informally recognising the skills that students are developing, but are not
always recognised. Using technology students have the opportunity to develop
their own reflection plans, collate learning from different places and share
their developments with a wider audience.
How
will colleagues benefit?
Colleagues will have the opportunity to
see how technologies such as Pebblepad are being used in a variety of
contexts across different faculties and for different learning activities
(including faculty challenges and with PGR students). They will also be able to
discuss how their own practice can be enhanced through the integration of
technology with members of the TEL team and identify the most appropriate tools
to meet the needs of themselves and their students.
