On behalf of the JISC e-Learning Programme, we would like to thank all those who participated in the recent survey of JISC e-Learning Programme communications activities.
JISC has commissioned Stamp Consulting to objectively evaluate the effectiveness and impact of a range of communication activities funded by the JISC e-Learning Programme between 2004 and 2009. Activities to be evaluated include printed publications (for example, the JISC Effective Practice guides), multimedia resources, workshops and online conferences. Findings from the evaluation will inform the e-Learning Programme’s future communication and dissemination approaches to ensure we are better meeting the needs of the community we serve.
As part of this study, we ran a short online survey which allowed individuals to register their interest in participating in telephone interviews, as well as collecting general information about awareness of JISC e-Learning resources. Those who participated in the survey were eligible for entry into a prize draw to win a 32GB iPod touch. There were 439 responses to the survey of which 60 % represented higher education and 24 % represented further education.
We are also delighted to announce that Matt Smith, e-Learning Manager at Coleg Gwent is the winner of the prize draw of the 32GB iPod touch. Congratulations to Matt and we hope he enjoys using the device to support e-learning developments at the college.
