Life has been fairly hectic of late as I prepare to leave Bath - and, for now, the world of distance education.
For just over two years I’ve been working on a transformative project with an MSc distance learning programme. It’s been an extremely rewarding project that appears to have made a great deal of difference to a lot of people – and I’ve learned a lot from it. A number of case studies have come out of it – most recently one on assessing students through online role-play (soon to be available through CEBE) - and the entire project has been written up twice; once from an e-learning perspective (to be published in Issue 4.2 of the Journal of Engineering Education), and once from more of a change management perspective. The latter piece of work was submitted towards an MA in Education, for a unit called Leading and Managing Educational Innovation. The full text is available here for those of you who are interested in the change management perspective of developing online/distance education. It’s a “warts ‘n’ all” account that doesn’t attempt to sweep anything under the carpet (I am getting better at metaphors these days)… enjoy!

[Translation of above:] “This article is informal and informative – thank you” … I think that’s right – my Russian isn’t up to much! Thanks
