The document outlines the QIF project at Coleg Cambria focused on using technology for learning, highlighting the integration of vodcasts, online resources, and digital tools to enhance teaching and learning. It reports on successful teaching practices observed at Yale College, where tutors effectively use diverse resources to engage learners and provide instant feedback. The project emphasizes the importance of technology in promoting collaborative learning and improving assessment outcomes.

13. Activity Outcomes
In 2013, LFE inspection with provider Yale College (Sport and PE)
Estyn reported that:
“Tutors plan lessons well. They have comprehensive
schemes of work and effective lesson plans, with clear
objectives. There is a good balance of theory and practical training
which is well matched to the training programme.
Tutors use a wide range of very good teaching resources, such
as IPODs, smart phones, flip charts, good quality informative hand
outs and the virtual learning environment (VLE). All tutors have a
good rapport with apprentices and understand their differing needs
and abilities well. Apprentices enjoy their learning,
particularly the practical sessions.”

14. In June 2013 Estyn awarded its first FE College ‘excellent’ for
teaching and learning at Yale College, stating,
‘All staff use a wide range of effective teaching
and training methods’
“Trainer-mentors and teaching staff use ILT highly effectively to
enhance teaching, learning and assessment. In the best cases,
devices such as notepad computers and mobile phones are
integrated into classroom and workshop activities. Teachers make
good use of applications which allow, for example, instant
assessment and feedback, links to further information
resources using QR codes (Quick Recognition) and instant
video replay to give feedback on practical tasks.“
