About Gwella at Aberystwyth University

Gwella is a Wales-wide initiative to promote the use of technology to enhance learning. Please see the following HEFCW circulars:

The Nexus web site is being developed as part of AU’s Gwella projects. On 21 October 2009, a symposium was held to publicise Gwella within the University.

The word cloud below (created using Wordle at http://www.wordle.net/) is drawn from the text of AU's initial Gwella proposal and project plan.

Gwella has enabled the provision of the following areas for AU:

  • New funding to enable staff to enhance their teaching through technology - see CDSAP funding page
  • New Web 2.0 tools for Blackboard - Campus Pack for blogs, wikis and podcasting
  • New training - an expanded range of staff training courses to help you integrate technology into your teaching effectively

In addition, AU will be carrying out an e-learning learner experience study based on groundwork done by JISC and ELESIG (Evaluation of Learners' Experiences of e-learning Special Interest Group).
