Colleges to get £1 million cash for innovation in e-learning - Public Technology
A total of £1 million has been awarded to nine partnerships of colleges, sixth form institutions and adult education organisations to run ‘transformation projects’ that will examine the impact of e-learning. The projects, selected from 86 bids, will be managed by the Learning and Skills Development Agency (LSDA) on behalf of the National Learning Network – a partnership of organisations involved in e-learning within post-16 education and training. The aim of the projects is to investigate how e-learning can transform the ways in which people learn through the application of technology. They will attempt to discover what works and why, and how to overcome barriers to e-learning. Each college or partnership will receive between £50,000 and £150,000 from the Department of Education and Skills’ Standards Fund to help them release time for development of staff skills and to investigate processes to embed e-learning within the culture of institutions.
