1. 1. North Hertfordshire College To the centre for innovation and beyond !
2. 2. Main Aim Skills Expert Student Progression/Destination Overall Value Added Maths & English and Digital Literacies Flipping the Hierarchy of Outcomes The NHC way! We have been on a 5 year journey to fundamentally change the way we work
3. 3. Where does elearning sit? As part of the programme of study all courses must include elearning All course materials, assessments and student development passports are housed on our bespoke platform But workforce confidence is low and motivation is affected by a perceived skills gap and sector wide time constraints Some staff are still developing their use of 3D learning (our platform) elearning is a step too far!
4. 4. The journey.. BCFI Staff development programmes contain bookable masterclasses that focus on tools, technology and approaches Small cohorts of a full 2 day face to face programme for blended delivery curriculum planning Workshops with industry experts to practice skills and techniques Barriers to development Not all staff book on to the right masterclasses Day job takes over proposed plans that result from training Approach to follow up impact and progress of training undertaken lacked focus Whole organization issue with understanding the concept of elearning
5. 5. The Journey . PCFI Three tier model developed to meet the Sept 2015 target of 10% elearning Elearning promotional campaign launched and all curriculum areas attend an introductory CFI elearning session Whole organization training programme developed online eNable is born! Barriers to development: Not all staff completed the programme The programme took longer to complete than we anticipated We didnt develop the programme for service areas initially so there were some missed opportunities and some language barriers Some people still think learning how to use digital tools will solve their elearning problems
6. 6. IMPACT and next steps Some staff felt the focus should have been on the tools they could use this is down the issue with understanding the concept of elearning and expecting the tools to solve the problem The employer engagement session was a huge success and has resulted in a series of live projects, work experience opportunities and more sessions being planned for Easter. An employer engagement networking site will be up and running by the next session Service areas are moving their training materials online, setting up pages and projects for both staff and students, they want more! All teams will be delivering elearning this term and know this will be reviewed by us and their peers during Feb half term A student version of eNable is now being developed by students and employers. All NHC students will complete an online training programme of digital literacy skills prior to starting face to face sessions
7. 7. Activity: On each table you have a potential barrier to develop elearning based on some we encountered during the eNable process You have ten minutes to workshop as many solutions to your barrier as you can We will then share our solutions with the whole group
