The development of a virtual learning environment site to support year one industrial design undergraduates: a case study
conference contribution
posted on 2006-07-05, 17:08 authored by Howard G. DentonThis paper describes the development and initial evaluation of a site within a
university virtual learning environment (VLE). This was designed to support
more conventional teaching and learning on a first year undergraduate ‘design
practice’ module. The first use of the VLE site in practice was evaluated from
a triangulated set of qualitative data: staff observation, a student
questionnaire and student reflections posted on a discussion board.
The paper firstly outlines the background driving the development of the
Design Practice module site on the VLE. Secondly the planning and
emerging structure of the site is described. Thirdly the strategy and data
collection methods to evaluate student use of the site is described. Fourthly
this is followed by a discussion based on data gained. Conclusions are then
drawn.
