Feed-forward for Informed Learning (FfIL): Learner-generated materials for personalised learning

ABSTRACT

AbstractA recently funded JISC project (2012) at the University of West London (UWL) explores the role of student as producer (SaP). A dynamic action research approach (Zubber-Skerrit 1992) focuses on the role of students in the production of materials for their own and others’ learning at point of entry to HE study. The JISC Feed-forward for Informed Learning (FfiL) project (JISC 2012) directly involves students in the creation, dissemination and evaluation of digital materials to support curriculum delivery and personalised learning. It also ensures involvement of learners in the promotion and uptake of open educational resources (OER) to support a variety of modes of learner engagement.
