E-communication
What is it?
The e-communication site contains information focusing on three key elements when using online communication media for teaching and learning:
- Creating an online community
- Teaching and learning activities and
- Collaboration
The site provides a variety of resources to support academics in designing and developing teaching activities. It suggests teaching strategies, ideas, tips and references which can be employed using the communication media offered in Blackboard and supplemented by additional media technologies.
Why use it?
Academics are encouraged to enhance the student's learning experiences by offering increased choices in flexibility of access, time and pace. This site has been developed to assist academics in the implementation of communication media technologies into their teaching and learning through the adoption of new learning technologies which must be appropriate, effective and accessible.
