A presentation on the use of online Assessment Diaries at Glamorgan. The presentation will enable the viewer to understand the logistical process of gathering assessment deadlines and feedback dates and how these are brought together for a student and staff overview of the Assessment Diaries. Participants will be invited to discuss the feasibility of transferring this approach into their institution.
The University of Hertfordshire ITEAM project reflect on the steps required to successfully roll out institutional technologies, their work has looked at voting technologies, but there are commonalities across a number of technologies.

Institutions recognise how new technology can enhance the learning and teaching experience for staff and students. Increasingly they are looking to technology to support them in achieving their strategic goals. However, there are a range of obstacles to the adoption of technology that institutions must overcome. Change of any kind is daunting, particularly when dealing with long-established methods and systems. Success depends on shifting entrenched culture and attitudes. Join us as Bill shares practical tips, ideas, resources and real-life examples. We've built the story around six key characteristics required of a successful adoption project.
Delivered at Innovate and Educate: Teaching and Learning Conference by Blackboard. 24 -27 August 2015 in Adelaide, Australia.

The University of Adelaide's Beacon of Enlightenment Strategic and Operational Plans outline a number of key targets for online learning. The 2013-14 Benchmarking eLearning Projects provided a baseline of the University's performance in regard to these online learning targets and a defined set of benchmarks. This presentation will provide a background to the Benchmarking eLearning Project, the data collected and how the data is leveraged in the faculty to improve the online learning experience of students. The newly established Guidelines for Minimum use of MyUni and a targeted approach to enhancing online course design in line with the targets will be discussed. Future plans to automate reporting using an expanded source of data to inform support activities and ensure the university is improving over time will be outlined.

Facilitators:
Myles Danson, product owner – business intelligence, Jisc
Adam Green, senior data and visualisation officer, Jisc
Victoria Atherstone, head of sales and marketing, HESA
Who remembers planting the very first seed in the nurturing eco-system of Jisc Analytics Labs? Four years ago, Jisc, HESA and universities nationwide joined forces to develop interactive, data-derived visualisation dashboards to offer insights to the most prevalent and topical issues facing HEIs through shared intelligence and data expertise.
The seedlings have been cross-pollinated by other additional activity and are now maturing into an array of powerful analytical dashboard suites to help you troubleshoot your most pressing institutional demands.
In this session we welcomed first time visitors to the AUA conference. This was an ideal opportunity to network with other newcomers, see what’s in store for the two days, and find out how to get the most out of the conference.

With clear illustrations and easy-to-follow explanations, readers will gain a new outlook on the universe's fundamental nature.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
