Abstract

This presentation will highlight the role of a Technology Enhanced Learning (TEL) community in a university-wide Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) roll-out. The community helped to reveal that inconsistent use of the VLE caused dissatisfaction. The community’s participation was formally recognised as the ‘Canvas team’ and new course and module ‘templates’ were designed and implemented to ensure consistent use of the VLE. The aim of this presentation is to discuss the role of the TEL community in bridging the gap between the theory and practice, beyond the roll-out and using early student evaluation data analysis.
