icon-readSummary

Digital learning materials have been created as part of this project, which evolves around student empowerment and aims to use the digital as a way of giving students the confidence to take control of their own learning. Digital learning materials were created by working around a topic they are all familiar with, then pulling in ideas from their areas of expertise. By doing this the team hopes to improve the value of student learning spaces, creating more interactive- based learning.
This project is intended to implemented in the upcoming academic year/
