Crossing the threshold: moving e-portfolios into the mainstream - Jisc Digita...Jisc
Since 2002 Jisc has been exploring the use of e-portfolio processes, pedagogies, tools and technologies in a range of learning contexts. Here in this workshop we will showcase the findings and key resources from this body of work, with a focus on the results of Jisc-funded research into e-portfolio implementation at scale, including the ‘threshold concept’ model of e-portfolio implementation, and findings of a subsequent study exploring the critical success factors for implementation.
A range of resources will be shared for participants to engage with, including the ‘e-Portfolio Implementation Toolkit’, which aims to enable others to understand issues around implementation and identify case studies that are most relevant to a their contexts; and video case studies showcasing rich examples of practice. Experience from a recent implementation story using the toolkit will be shared.
The role of UK higher education (HE), further education (FE) and skills sectors in developing student employability is clear. Technology can be an enabler to the development and communication of employability skills, but are organisations and employers making best use of it?
This presentation aims to share and discuss the emerging themes and ideas being generated through our student employability project, which explores how technology can best support students to develop and communicate the skills that are needed for the workplace.
The presentation informs participants of what has been learnt so far and engage them in discussions. We will:
Share emergent themes including issues and opportunities from the study
Share, discuss and build on ideas for what organisations, programme teams and we can do to enhance student employability and the use of technology.
Presenters:
Lisa Gray, senior co-design manager, Jisc
Peter Chatterton, independent consultant, higher education
Geoff Rebbeck, independent consultant, further education and skills
Who will find this useful?
The presentation will be of interest to anyone across HE, FE and skills with an interest in how students develop and communicate employability skills, primarily:
Senior managers with responsibility for employer responsiveness and employer engagement
Academic/teaching staff with an interest in employability
Technology-enhanced learning and academic enhancement roles
Employability leads
Staff with responsibility for personal development planning (PDP)
Careers staff.
A digital literacies framework – its strengths, weaknesses and opportunitiesJisc
Speaker: Fiona Handley, senior lecturer in learning and teaching, University of Brighton.
This session will explore the University of Brighton’s digital literacies framework which was launched in 2014.
The framework, which is aimed at academic staff, is divided into four categories: learning and teaching, research, communication and collaboration, and administration.
The session explores the strengths of a framework approach, the challenges it presents, but also the ongoing opportunities it offers compared to other digital literacy and capability initiatives.
Identifying and driving change in partnership with students - Simon walker, M...Jisc
Jisc has supported the creation of a UK wide Change Agents Network to support staff and students working in partnership on technology enhanced curriculum change projects. The network provides a virtual and face-to-face forum for staff and students across the UK to share approaches/experiences and offer support. The network was created as it was identified that working in partnership increases the success of technology-led projects and delivers the identification of student need and appropriate action. Delegates will have an opportunity to hear examples of how institutions are working in partnership with students to identify and affect sustainable change. Students who have participated in the network will share their experiences and outline the benefits they have experienced in working in partnership with staff on curriculum change initiatives.
The network has worked with the Staff and Educational Development Association (SEDA) to develop an award for staff and students working in partnership on change projects, the Institutional Change Leader award and this session will offer an insight into how colleges and universities are recognising and rewarding student participation in change projects. Participants will engage in discussion around this award and will be given access to the accreditation resources and materials, which they may wish to take to their own institution.
The network has also developed a guidance toolkit to support colleges and universities with implementing student partnerships, which has been developed from the collective resources of a range of Jisc, Higher Education Academy, QAA and institutional initiatives in this area. Delegates will participate in a group activity using these interactive materials so as to evaluate their use in supporting their own practice in taking forward student partnership working in their own institutions.

Digital student - understanding students' expectations and experiences of the...Jisc
Jisc’s research into students’ experiences and expectations of technology began in 2006 with the Learners’ Experiences of e-Learning programme. This became a reference study for the sector and helped change the way institutions understand students’ experiences with technology. Studies in partnership with the British Library, and work carried out by Jisc’s recent ‘Developing Digital Literacies' programme, have furthered our understanding of students' digital practices and needs. Now, through Jisc’s Co-Design programme, the Digital Student project has brought us up to date with how students' expectations are changing and what institutions are doing to keep up with them.
This workshop will offer delegates an opportunity to engage with the findings and recommendations from the Digital Student study and to consider what impact these could have in their own institutional context. A large part of the session will be taken up with a scenario planning activity in which delegates explore different outcomes depending on whether or not institutions rise to the digital challenge. There will be an opportunity to share effective approaches and to inform the next phase of activities being planned by Jisc to support the Digital Student Experience into the future.

Search and Society: Reimagining Information Access for Radical FuturesBhaskar Mitra
The field of Information retrieval (IR) is currently undergoing a transformative shift, at least partly due to the emerging applications of generative AI to information access. In this talk, we will deliberate on the sociotechnical implications of generative AI for information access. We will argue that there is both a critical necessity and an exciting opportunity for the IR community to re-center our research agendas on societal needs while dismantling the artificial separation between the work on fairness, accountability, transparency, and ethics in IR and the rest of IR research. Instead of adopting a reactionary strategy of trying to mitigate potential social harms from emerging technologies, the community should aim to proactively set the research agenda for the kinds of systems we should build inspired by diverse explicitly stated sociotechnical imaginaries. The sociotechnical imaginaries that underpin the design and development of information access technologies needs to be explicitly articulated, and we need to develop theories of change in context of these diverse perspectives. Our guiding future imaginaries must be informed by other academic fields, such as democratic theory and critical theory, and should be co-developed with social science scholars, legal scholars, civil rights and social justice activists, and artists, among others.

23. Working in partnership with our learners
»Learners in our studies saw the digital experience as an opportunity
to contribute and get involved
»Digital engagement methods such as social media, padlets, twitter
walls, vox pops etc are popular...
»Digital learners are different – it is important that the experience of
different groups is represented
»Learners can get involved in different ways e.g. champions, change
agents, digital leaders, digital ambassadors, student fellows,
student ambassadors, student partners, student researchers, co-
designers, co-creators, co-developers
»This is an issue which can help change relationships between staff
and students

An initial study reviewed existing evidence about students' expectations and experiences of study in a digital environment. This includes both:
digital environment generally e.g. wifi, IT support, access to devices and printers
the study environment in its digital aspects e.g. how digital resources and media are used; what software students access, how they use their own devices and services to support learning
The study also looked at how universities collect, manage and analyse such information locally, and how they engage students in a productive dialogue about their digital experience.
