This blog has been established to support lecturers from the Faculty of Life Sciences at the University of Manchester (UK) as they move through a series of workshops looking at teaching in higher education using iPads. The intention is to explore apps and consider ways in which they might be used in a higher education context. However, we hope that this blog may have a broader appeal and attract the suggestions and comments of others around the globe trying to keep abreast of this ever-changing field.
The blog is managed by Cathy Thomas-Varcoe. Cathy is the Distance Learning Lead for the Faculty of Life Sciences, but her interests lie in any form of technology-enhanced learning and the impact is has on lifelong learning. You can contact Cathy on catherine.thomas-varcoe@manchester.ac.uk
