Standards in teaching and
learning
• Academic journals, books and databases deliver primary research
that underpins theory across a whole host of topics. Standards help
students put this theory into context.
• Standards information complements the research literature
enabling students to develop a better knowledge of the practical
implications of research.
• With BSOL, you can help prepare your students for life beyond
university.
• By offering access to standards and helping faculty embed them as
part of the curriculum, you will ensure that your students are better
prepared for the demands of the corporate world.
• At the same time, if graduating students are consistently perceived
as having an ability to apply knowledge and identify, formulate and
solve problems, this in turn enhances the institution’s reputation in
the corporate sector.

Standards in teaching and
learning (cont.)
Practical examples
•Civil Engineering –
a group of students are tasked with designing a basic bridge as part
of their course. Using BSOL, they can explore different options to
solve design problems in an innovative yet practical way. For
example, they can trace historical approaches to bridge construction
by reviewing early standards that specify the use of steel; they can
see how the evolution of man-made materials such as concrete,
asphalt and composites have enhanced modern bridge design and
they can explore wiring regulations for information on lighting and
electrical requirements.
