Course Information Tab

Students using the Learning Space now have additional access to essential course information. This area is personal to each student, providing a welcome message, personal tutor details and important course documents. It is a minor change that adds a second tab on the front page of the Learning Space. It allows us to provide consistent, useful information up front to students.

Learning Space Infrastructure

On Wednesday 3rd September 2014, FX Plus IT Services will be updating the infrastructure behind Learning Space. This will ensure that the service will have greater support and resiliance in the future.

What this means for you?

Educational Technology have been working with ITS to ensure that through this transition the current issue of large file uploading/downloading has been resolved.

The Educational Technology team will be able to dedicate more time and resources to supporting you in your teaching and learning environments, not just in use of the VLE but in any aspect of enhancing learning through technology.

Learning Space – archival and refresh

It’s that time of year again. Student data from the last year such as assignments and forum posts are being archived off to allow modules to be populated with data from incoming cohorts. In addition, undergraduates wil be unsubscribed from last year’s modules.

In line with Falmouth University policy, all assessment data will still be available to you via the Academic Administration Team (AAT), but learning space courses will be refreshed for the start of the autumn term.

There will be some essential maintenance time on Tuesday the 5th August between 8AM and 12PM, whilst the team carry out this work.

Team ET have moved

As part of the summer of office moves and a refresh for us, Educational Technology have relocated to Cottage 8, Tremough Barton. Here’s a video of the walk from the old office to the new. 

ET new office

If you fancy a pleasant stroll, we’d warmly welcome you over for a cup of tea and a catch up.
