4. INTRODUCING ART TO FACILITATE CHANGE
ART was the vehicle for CTL to
achieve its role in the
transforming learning agenda, it
is about: improving the quality of
Curtin Courses with Faculty
colleagues, it is about making
the learning experience more
engaging and personalised and
it is about making learning at
Curtin truly international,
interactive and immersive.
5. CURTIN CONVERGED
The new Curtin model for Teaching and
Learning is Curtin Converged, a mix of
traditional lectures, flipped-classes,
technology enriched environments and
distributed learning techniques (Massive
Online Open Courses (MOOCs) and
high-end video and 3-D technologies)
that actively engage students whether
they attend classes on campus or from
another location.
6. DIGITAL LEARNING@CURTIN
The Digital Learning@Curtin strategy is based on the
eight transformational pillars - Products, Partners,
Processes, Pricing, People, Presence, Places and
Platforms.
11. CURTIN CHALLENGE
Welcome to Curtin Challenge, where you can develop your skills, build
your networks, and shape your future. Challenge is a fun and interactive
way to learn, and is just one of the many ways Curtin University is
transforming your University experience.
18. If you’re curious about
university or thinking about
your future, this game is for
you! In Campus Quest
you’ll play as a university
student and experience all
the pitfalls and successes
of campus life.
23. “
Curtin is committed to improving the digital
learning experience for all students through
creating high quality interactive MOOC’s on highly
desired topics.
24. “
Curtin believes in ensuring that education is accessible to all. We offer
Massive Open Online Courses (also known as MOOCs) that allow anyone to
complete short courses on a variety of topics online for free.
26. The purpose of this strategy is to
re-imagine the provision of digitally
delivered learning focussing on
transformed processes, innovative
recognised credentialing and the
adaptive business models needed
to implement change. The
scenarios highlight the need for a
digitally mature organisation
with staff equipped with the
necessary skills to lead, create
and facilitate digital learning in all
modes.
THE SHIFT TO DIGITAL
LEARNING
The availability of digitally
delivered courses anywhere and
anytime also requires the
provision of student and staff
support services that meet
online learners’ expectations of
flexible and timely access to
those additional services that are
a feature of University life and are
central to academic success.
33. Computation is an increasingly important activity in most disciplines, leading to new
fields such as computational science and engineering, computational humanities,
computational finance and many others.
