MEL SIG - Media Enhanced learning, Special Interest Group

Education

MEL SIG was created to develop a self-sustaining SIG and ‘community of practice’ for ‘Media Enhanced Learning’, that adds value, builds capacity, and stimulates partnerships and networks. We want to facilitate discussion and dissemination of the pedagogic use, purposes and benefits of digital media, and to consider its future uses. We provide a staff development focal point for podcasting practice (digital audio and video), from ‘novice‘ to ‘expert’. We want to integrate ‘the student experience’ and ‘student views’ into SIG activities and deliberations, to be a resource for pedagogic research and investigation in the areas of digital media and educational podcastin
