Developing a roadmap for E-learning at LTH

Abstract

Focus groups interviews were held with a range of stakeholders in order to adopt a scholarly and evidencebased approach to developing policy on e-learning at the faculty of Engineering at Lund University. Three themes emerged; Philosophy and epistemology, Learning Design and Policy and infrastructure. The groups saw increased use of elearning as necessary and inevitable, but acknowledged barriers to be overcome in order to move forward, including policies, infrastructure and administrative and resource constraints. Long-term strategies and plans at all levels would empower appropriate and future-looking redesigns.
