Delivering Transformational changeJISC Transformations programme
Aimed at supporting institutional staff across 57 university projects to effect large-scale organisational change, underpinned by ICT, where there is an objective to:•enhance student experience•improve operational efficiency •enhance organisational capability for business and community engagement
SEDA Professional Development Framework (PDF)SEDA's PDF provides recognition for higher education institutions, their professional development programmes and the individuals who complete those programmes.
•It uses a range of named awards to recognise different types of professional development.
•All named awards share a common set of values and core development outcomes and each named award has its own set of specialist outcomes.

The problemHow can ‘third space’ professionals become enablers who promote new approaches
to using learning technology and aid others in adopting them. This is a staff, organisational and a technological problem space but it is also pedagogical one.
The Questions• Does the SEDA “Embedding Learning Technologies” course provide the
pedagogical framework to address the problem? • Which JISC tools can be used in the development process and as course materials?
Aims• Develop an institutional approach to support and develop staff to be leaders in
enabling change• Increase and develop engagement with technology• Enhance student (and staff) experience

Defining terms
• Post Digital• Third space professional• Transliteracy
Post Digital
• More concerned with being human, than with being digital
• Digital as a embedded part of our daily life
• Impact of technology on our interactions, culture, social structures
• Constant state of flux, change is the norm
Post-digital Siri by moleitau
Third space professionals (Whitchurch)
• Typically non academic roles
• Multidimensional, span academic and professional roles
• Issues around moving and communication across different disciplines
• Often act as change agents, but not always acknowledged

Exploring Transliteracy
The concept of transliteracy is embedded in the very earliest histories of human communication, providing a cohesion of modes relevant to writing, interpretation and interaction. Thomas, S. (2008)
KIOSK @ STRP by iMAL.org
Transliteracy qualities
• Ability to understand a range of tools
• Participation in collective behaviour
• Awareness of cultural historical context
• Sense of physicality/spatial life world
• Multimodal sensibility (Thomson , 2007)
Multimodal Transport By D1v1d
Embedding Transliteracy values in CDP
• SEDA Embedding learning technologies ( ELT)• Created learning opportunities that are
authentic, reflective, collaborative and achievable
• Underpinned by appropriate pedagogical model

"Connections between disparate ideas and fields can create new innovations.The starting point of connectivism is the individual. Personal knowledge is comprised of a network, which feeds into organizations and institutions, which in turn feed back into the network, and then continue to provide learning to individual. This cycle of knowledge development (personal to network to organization) allows learners to remain current in their field through the connections they have formed. ...This amplification of learning, knowledge and understanding through the extension of a personal network is the epitome of connectivism."Quoted from: Connectivism: A Learning Theory for the Digital Age (Siemens, 2005) itdl.org/journal/jan_05/article01.htm

Structure of the course• 10 weeks, blended learning• Supported through Action
Learning Sets, tutorials, and weekly podcasts
Assessed activities• Reflective Portfolio
demonstrating how SEDA values and outcomes are met
• Reflective peer reviewed reading log
• CPD needs log• Implementation and evaluation of
a project
Bowl with structured wall by Peter Remnemark
Why a project?
• SEDA ELT - Specialist Outcome
• Motivation - Authentic experience- related to the role
• Project plan - Better fit with a professional cohort
• Opportunity for adopting transliteracy practices through participative and reflective learning
• Develop a shared institutional approach to embedding technology.
My project is looking at Training and Development for administrators through a peer
support programme. This is planned to be implemented through self evaluation exercises,
small group exercises to share best practice, online sessions and feedback opportunities.
My project is based around the development of fully and partially online classes, and how these can vest be supported by department
administration.
My project will focus on looking at the Moodle quiz tool which is widely used
within the departments I support for both formative and summative assessment. I would like to establish and document
processes and procedures for using this tool effectively with a specific focus in outlying
key things lecturers should consider and do before rolling out a quiz or online exam.
My project is to develop a distance or blended learning course, for new staff in particular, that will induct them in the effective use of Roehampton's key learning technologies namely, Moodle and Turnitin.
My project is to use video clips (screen capture and digital film) to go
alongside written information, to encourage students to familiarise themselves with important processes/policies within the
university..

Use of JISC tools • Reflective activities, in
groups or alone• Focused on developing an
understanding of how people learn
• Supporting project work• Developing
understanding of CPD development needs
• Developing understanding of own digital identity
Tools By Dan Shouse
Attributes/ Identifies
I create a learning environment that suits me, with an awareness of my needs and preferences including ICT preferencesI plan my own learning journey, using technology to access opportunity, showcase achievements, and reflect on the outcomesI design original projects, problems and questions that are meaningful to me and othersI am a critical reader of messages in different media, and a critical user of different technologiesI judge digital resources, environments, networks and opportunities for their value to me and othersI behave ethically in contexts where the digital is blurring boundaries, and with an awareness of digital rights and safety
ICT capabilities Information/media capabilities Learning/thinking capabilities
Practices (ways of thinking
and acting)
I choose, use and blend technologies to suit my needsI explore the capabilities of technologyI personalise technologies and services
I share ideas and express myself in a variety of mediaI choose, use and blend media for communicating ideasI repurpose, adapt and re-edit content for a variety of audiencesI scope research questions and creative projects, and use information to address them
I study under my own initiative and in the ways that suit meI participate in learning communities and groupsI build knowledge collaborativelyI solve complex problems using appropriate ICT tools
Skills(personal
capabilities)
I can:use search engines, online services, data, analysis toolsuse a range of media-capture devicesuse a range of editing applicationsuse communication and presentation toolsuse professional and academic (subject-specific) tools

VisionDeveloping leaders in liminal roles who:
• display confidence and engagement with technology • are able to make effective use of existing and new
technologies • demonstrate empathy with and an understanding of cultural
practices in different professional domains• are able to communicate across institutional contexts and
through appropriate media• can facilitate shared approaches to embedding learning
technologies• foster an understanding of what it means too successfully
embed a learning technology through helping others to develop new skills and behaviours.
