What we do and why
The Centre for Technology in Education (CTiE) provides both pedagogic and technical leadership and support for education provision across City St George’s School of Health & Medical Sciences by working with programmes’ teams to integrate technology into education in a way that enhances the learning experience and outcomes for our students and improve the teaching experience of our academic colleagues.
The three main areas within CTiE are:
- Learning Technology Services (LTS) provides operational guidance and training to staff and students regarding the use of technology underpinned by pedagogy to support learning, teaching and assessment across the University.
- The e-Learning Unit (eLU) develop solutions to support learning and research, particularly related to the development of Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs), research projects on scenario-based learning and virtual patients. We are active collaborators in a range of local and international education-focused projects and networks.
- The Professional Education Centre (PEC) offers a portfolio of short courses. Working alongside members of the team and dedicated academics we continue to develop new credit-bearing and CPD short courses for healthcare professionals.
Our range of activities/projects include the following:
