  5. Changing Practice Percentage of responses* * Institution or department-wide

  6. Perceptions of adoption (2011) • Recurring use of 'patchy’ in relation to levels of adoption • Typically, experimental/individual/local initiatives led by enthusiasts • But interest in moving to wider adoption • 12/38 planning to increase adoption substantially

  7. Perceptions of adoption (2012) • Evidence of eSubmission becoming more mainstream • 18/44 respondents indicated increased use of eSubmission, in the previous 12 months • only one reference to 'patchy‘ adoption • replaced by terms such as 'moving towards', 'rolling out‘ • Some evidence of move to eMarking and eFeedback • Frequent reference to ‘pilots’ and projects to evaluate/test new ways of working • 7/44 working on improving technology (not evident in 2011) • better integration • improved robustness • anonymous submission • feedback tool

  8. No Gain without Pain • Anxieties about eSubmission, eMarking and eFeedback process • 31/34 identified one or more anxiety • Need for ‘Balance of progress Vs preserving academic choice’ • Adoption being driven mainly by senior management, learning technologists, students • Fewer examples of academic staff driving adoption

  9. Conclusion • Comparison of 2011 and 2012 survey demonstrate • Emerging trend towards mainstreaming eSubmission and greater use of eFeedback But • Need for balanced approach when rolling out institutionally to overcome barriers References - www.helf.ac.uk
