Learning Technology Support
The Learning Technology Support (LTS) was formed by the School of Computer Science in August 2006 to help the School meet the aims of the Manchester 2015 Agenda, specifically Goal Four:
To provide students with teachers, learning environments,
teaching and learning infrastructure and support services equal to the best
in the world."
What does the LTS do?
Amongst its roles, the LTS is responsible for the administration and running Moodle, the adopted virtual learning environment (VLE) for the School of Computer Science. This work also involves finding better ways to integrate moodle into the schools existing systems. The LTS also:
- works with academic staff to support and enhance teaching using technology;
- advises on tools and features of the moodle VLE;
-
provides moodle training and workshops;
-
researches new tools and technologies that may support the school's teaching programmes.
- encourages innovation in teaching delivery
With a history of innovation in methods of material development
and delivery, the PEVE team were the natural choice when looking at the
use of technology in course delivery
