The JISC e-Learning programme (October 2003 to March 2009) aims to identify how e-learning can benefit learners, practitioners and educational institutions, and advise on its implementation.
It aims to achieve an improved quality of learning through:
- Practitioners developing the confidence and skills to manage and facilitate e-learning in different contexts and with different pedagogical approaches
- A technical infrastructure that supports flexibility, diversity and extendibility
- Easy access to high quality, flexible learning materials
- Effective and responsive e-learning policies, systems and structures in place at local, regional and national level
JISC is working in partnership with Becta and the Higher Education Academy to realise the DCSF/DIUS e-Strategy and the HEFCE e-Learning strategy with its updated statement of policy (due Dec 2008).
The programme structure is currently being reviewed, see a summary of the new structure and approach (Word) and the priority areas for development work (Word). The activities of the programme are available on the website under the following areas:
For further information about the e-Learning programme, please see the e-Learning Focus website which is aimed at the wider community.
The programme is funded by the JISC Learning and Teaching committee
