    I meant to add…does your organisation also have more formal methods for ensuring that staff engage with technology, use and review its contribution to their TLA? And is there a direct link back to quality improvement strategy?

    I need to think about what you have said Rose, good point. In effect, are we talking about a point at which complacency might creep in (a quality improvement culture issue?) or simply that the contribution of technology has been maximised. Interesting!

    Good point and I agree that sometimes impact is about ‘what can this or that do for us in the future (if anything) rather than its (measurable) impact on TLA. Definitely a positive thing to do and nice to be able to do it! Any forward looking innovative organisation should encourage the trying out of new things or ways of working, even if…[Read more]

    One simple approach in beginning to think about what you would like to achieve might be to begin with an ‘entitlement model’. i.e. considering how technology can contribute to the learner experience. This can be adapted to other stakeholders (and sub-groups within), e.g. teachers/tutors; leaders/managers; employers….

    This fits in with…[Read more]

    I agree with strategy being a ‘global plan….’ approach.

    I’d be interested to read your views on integrated strategy as opposed to standalone. Once a technology strategy is well established – at what point, if any, does anyone think that the technology strategy can be integrated into other quality improvement business processes – for example,…[Read more]

    I’ve been thinking about the tips (enablers) provided by Kyriaki in Week 1 webinar (see my blog http://www.the-edge-uk.org/view-from-the-edge.html) BTW I’m having problems responding to comments (Tracey, sorry).

    Anyway. How do you demonstrate evidence of impact? It’s so easy to say but so hard to do. The challenge being how does one separate this…[Read more]

    I think some contributors have already mentioned this but building relationships is possibly the most important factor in working with staff, although also really challenging because resources might not stretch to it. Online resources, sessions and support centres all have their place but since they take effort to use, go to, get in touch with,…[Read more]

    I think this is like painting the Forth Bridge, it’s a job that will never be finished!

    Have you done anything to find out why people don’t want to engage with technology? (I’m not suggesting you haven’t, just wondering what you might have done!)
