ABSTRACT

Experiences of National Projects in Embedding Learning Technology into Institutional Practices in Higher Education Jacqueline Dempster and Frances Deepwell Over the last decade, the UK higher education funding councils have funded a staggeringly large number of educational development projects under a range of teaching and learning programmes. Of these, a significant number aimed to develop and implement methods and tools specifically involving learning technologies. However, the sector has witnessed varying degrees of success in the way the innovative approaches explored by project work have been embraced, adopted and embedded. An evaluation of project success factors is therefore useful in order to inform decisions about educational innovation in the future.
