Successful bid for funds
Dave Harris and Ian Gilhespy have been successful in a bid to the Higher Education Academy Network for Hospitality, Leisure, Sport and Tourism Pedagogic Research and Development Fund 2007/08 (Round 9).
The title for the project is ‘Reusable Learning Objects: Evaluating the Outcomes of Multi-Media and Single Medium RLOs’. The intention is to set up a trial to see if students learn equally well with PowerPoints, podcasts, video, handouts or multimedia RLOs. The implications for costs are obvious, but we are also keen to pin down any emergent 'multimedia effects'.
Anyone interested in RLOs might like to scan our own collection, covering topics like Sport and Leisure, Research Methods and Study Skills, available here
