Management and implementation of Virtual Learning Environments

Jenkins, M., Browne, T., and Armitage, S (2001) Management and implementation of Virtual Learning Environments, UCISA: UCISA is aware that a number of issues relating to VLEs are having a significant impact on Computing/Information services. They also represent cultural challenges for both academic staff and students in how they engage with their learning and teaching. Issues relate to choosing a VLE, its implementation, technical support and a whole range of support, training and pedagogic issues relating to its use. In order to gain an insight into how these questions are being addressed in Higher Education, with particular reference to their impact on the UCISA community, UCISA commissioned the Teaching and Learning sub-group of UCISA-TLIG to conduct a national survey.
