Learning and Teaching
High-quality teaching that is engaging, purposeful and inclusive.
The Learning and Teaching Development Unit (LTDU) works closely with colleagues across the University to implement the Education and Student Experience (ESE) Strategy (2024 - 2028). The ESE Strategy sets out the University's vision to build students’ curiosity, confidence and capabilities through consistently high-quality teaching.
The Learning and Teaching Development Unit is comprised of two teams:
- Learning and Teaching Development (LTD) – responsible for enhancing learning, teaching and assessment practices across the University.
- Technology Enhanced Learning (TEL) - responsible for developing and disseminating ways in which staff can use technology effectively in the delivery of education provision.
Meet LTDU:
- Dr Dave Barber, Head of Technology Enhanced Learning and Digital Literacies
- Dr Elizabeth Munro, Educational Developer
- Lee Saunders, Technology Enhanced Learning Trainer and Developer
- Juliet Winter, Senior Researcher Learning and Teaching Development
Our provision includes:
- Professional development and recognition, including AdvanceHE Fellowship.
- Collaboration with programme teams in curriculum and assessment design.
- Enabling colleagues to develop innovative technology enhanced learning practices (TEL), including using Canvas and in-class tools.
- Reward, recognition and reflective practice through robust CPD workshop and training offerings.
Technology Enhanced Learning
Technology Enhanced Learning (TEL) is implemented in an evidence-based and systematic way at Winchester, despite the rapidly changing environment. The purpose of using technology is central to any innovation we support - the use of TEL at Winchester starts with asking why? Students play an active role in shaping the digital environment, and in supporting innovation at Winchester.
Canvas
The University of Winchester uses Canvas as its virtual learning environment. Canvas has been designed with current students in mind and features an intuitive user interface and a range of mobile apps for both staff and students. Completely cloud-based, Canvas ensures that students studying at the University of Winchester always have access to their course content if they have an internet-enabled device.
