Enhancing Learning through Technology (ELT)

The use of technology is widespread in UK Higher Education and the Centre undertakes a range of activities to support academics who are interested in the use of technology to enhance the learning process. The Centre has produced several publications and resources on technology and has had several e-learning projects funded by the JISC (Joint Information Systems Committee).
