Curriculum Design and Curriculum Delivery
Institutional Approaches to Curriculum Design
Projects are reviewing course design and validation processes, in particular looking at the ways these are supported and informed by technology in order to transform learning opportunities.
12 projects, running for 4 years

Transforming Curriculum Delivery
Projects focusing on processes which take place when real learners engage with a designed curriculum.
15 projects, running for 2 years
For further information visit www.jisc.ac.uk/curriculumdelivery
Both programmes are supported by a central Support and Synthesis project, led by JISC InfoNet in partnership with the JISC Advisory Services, JISC-CETIS, the Regional Support Centres and the Higher Education Academy. This project is also working in partnership with Becta so as to ensure synergy and join up with other relevant sector initiatives.
