Programme overview Support and Synthesis Project
JISC Expectations Strand A • Projects expected to address identified issues and challenges, or deliver identified benefits • With a clear description of these and any evidence of need • The aim is for projects to have significant impact on the institution’s provision • Can start with school or faculty, but need to show scalability & transferability • Address both pedagogical aims and workload issues/efficiencies • And put in place evaluation plans to ensure both are measured – focus on identifying evidence of impact and tangible benefits • Projects are expected to identify educational principles that would inform their work • And to reference these in their plans
Strand A - Activities • Focus on evaluating the impact of innovations, and on identifying tangible benefits • All Strand A projects will be expected to undertake the following activities: • Review of current processes and practices, plus previous projects • Pin down desired changes, and draw up plan to achieve them • Pilot the innovations • Evaluation of impact of the innovations from perspective of all stakeholders • Embedding and planning for sustainability • Projects not expected to undertake significant new technical development, more likely to be implementing, integrating and refining
Programme Support Team Support Co-ordinator
Clusters and Critical Friends • Critical Friend role – building on experience from different programmes.
