Best Practice Models

This page gives more information about the Best Practice Models project run in the Learning Development and Innovation team at Staffordshire University and details of how you can get involved. Aim of the E-learning Best Practice Models Project at Staffordshire University: to identify and model good practice in facilitating eLearning using descriptions which practitioners (both novice and experienced) can adopt easily as part of the course design process to enhance learner-centred, flexible learning. The Models are shareable descriptions of e-learning practice. They are presented as short, clear summaries of good practice and research made available to all e-learning practitioners in an online community of practice. Full details with case studies, how-to guides and discussion forums are all available when you join the community. http://learning.staffs.ac.uk/bestpracticemodels/
