Meeting students where they are – A different student journey

This plenary session will explore the challenges experienced by a large section of our student body who undertake lengthy journeys to campus using the region’s public transport networks. Many would like to be able to use the time productively to engage with their studies, but are often hindered because the way learning materials are presented on Brightspace can make access from a mobile phone difficult.

In this interactive session, you will hear from commuter students about the challenges they face, and experience some of the frustrations of accessing teaching materials on a phone. We will show you Brightspace techniques which can remove the barriers, and new features to efficiently create interactive follow-up materials to complement your lectures.
