Editor's Notes
- Whydoes ELESI Exist?
- How does ELESIG do this?ELESIG is once again offering small grants to our community members to engage in activities in line with our aim to develop a shared repertoire of resources which will be of benefit to the community and the sector and which build on shared knowledge and practice about learner experience research.Proposals are invited from individuals or groups, which lead to the production of outputs which will help ELESIG meet this aim such as by supporting members to stay in touch with the field of learner experience research, to disseminate advances in methods for learner experience research or to network with other researchers.If you have any questions, please post them in our Small Grants Scheme FAQs forum, which will be monitored by members of the ELESIG Organising Committee.
- Also supported ELESIG midlands group, rumour of a scottish one, and maybe one in LondonNext meeting of Gwella…The topic this time is a question many people have been asking in a variety of contexts recently, Where’s the beef? For the meet up it’s nothing to do with horses but about if there is real evidence for the success or otherwise of the impact of technology on the learner experience. Is learning technology just there so those nice people at JISC can have jobs or is there real evidence of its benefits?Have you conducted some research in this area? Have you heard about some good research? Would you like to research in this area? Are you interested in seeing what research is out there?
- Bibiographies or lite reviews. On Ning you will also find..Review The ‘Learner Experience’ of mobility and connectedness by John Traxler’
