One of the key elements of the Univeristy of Plymouth’s Building Capacity project is learning from the JISC funded
Learning Literacies for a Digital Age (LLiDA) project.
In order to fully benefit from the LLiDA experience we are working with Helen Beetham, an expert in this area. Helen recently facilitated a workshop for us to help in Defining the Digital Literacy needs of UoP
This workshop was attended by a range of Decision makers and Influencers from across the University and is a precursor to focus groups with students and staff.
The key resources used in the Defining the Digital Literacy needs of UoP workshop were
- Managing change: organizations, roles and strategies
- Literacies development framework
- Learning Literacies for a Digital Age- institutional audit tool
- Plymouth workshop slides
The next stage of this work is to collate the response of workshop participants and follow-up with individuals as necessary.
The Plymouth audit will be published here once it is completed













Hi there,
I am carrying out a small project for my PGCAP 720 in which I am evaluating my students’ (Stage 3) use of the series of lecture podcasts provided since the start of the year.
I am also a Stage 1 Tutor for Criminology. I am not pre-judging the results, but it seems already apparent we do not teach our students how they should use these resources to boost their understanding or learning?
The literature suggests we should?
Regards, Paul
