Editor's Notes
- This presentation will provide an overview of the approach the University of Derby has taken to strategically embed digital capability development within the organisation and ensuring that the digital experience of students and staff helps to guide the enhancements needed to support the development of digital capabilities. It will then discuss how the university plans to build on this and the recent large scale shift towards digital learning, in order to encourage programmes of study to closely consider the need to embed digital capability development in order to meet the needs of local employers and reduce the digital skills gap which has widened with the Covid-19 pandemic.
- Created resources to support people to understand digital capabilities Staff course which gets people to think about their digital skills and how they are helping students to build theirs Embedded in DPR process to think of targets related to this area Part of recruitment guidance to ask interview question around digital capabilities Student course which gets them to think about the digital skills they need for their future career Jisc Discovery Tool embedded in these Developing the digital infrastructure through data gathered via the Digital Insights Survey to ensure this supports staff and students to develop their digital capabilities
- Then it all got a bit sped up Rapidly upskilling staff and students Shared examples of good practice As mentioned in the keynote we ran a course over the summer for all academic staff which helped to establish the educational model and pedagogic principles which sit behind this The course modelled the practice and the different Technlogies available Also a lot of skills based training around the technologies which support the delivery of this, collaborate, Teams, Padlet, Discussion boards, Poll Everywhere
- Practice becoming more established Blended with 3 hours face-to-face delivery a week Staff and students have developed their digital capabilities We don’t want our academic staff and students to waste this However, it has also made clear the digital divide that exists and we need to think carefully about how we help to address this
- The rest of the world has also moved on Increase in people wanting to work from home Businesses seeing that productivity could still be maintained More online collaborative working with co-workers and clients Development of online practices within companies
- So what does the future hold… Report from Jisc on Learning and Teaching reimagined https://www.jisc.ac.uk/reports/learning-and-teaching-reimagined-a-new-dawn-for-higher-education What do employers want?
