What we do

The Learning Design team contributes to the design, development and delivery of online education across the University. Our work is grounded in educational best practice, advocacy of the student experience and aligns to the strategic directions and priorities for teaching and learning within the University. We work closely with academic and professional staff across Schools, Faculties and Directorates, and regularly partner with our Digital Education colleagues on day-to-day activities as well as larger initiatives. Our work streams encompass: the cyclical development of the online teaching ecosystem; the provision of day-to-day support to teaching staff; educational improvement projects, partnerships and activities; as well as educational transformation and innovation initiatives.
