Post Occupancy: Changes Made As A Result Of Feedback

The work done has been to some extent experimental and staff and students have been generally delighted with the results.

Users are encouraged to give feedback both formally and informally.

Lesson plans are currently being looked at. The use of technology is being surveyed, more specifically the proportion of time in which technology is used to when it's not. Robin feels that the use of technology needs to be monitored in order that the College can get an idea of how it's used and how successful its use is. The key is how relevant is the use of technology?

Changes are being experienced in the student body. There is growing employer-led provision involved. It's about supporting learners off-site - and employers as well as staff at the College are contributing to the student experience. This is where the electronic Lewisham Learning Space/Gateway will come into its own as a way of developing the communication, keeping users in touch. The Lewisham extranet must be rolled out more widely to cater for this employer involvement.
