Flexible Learning Programme

Masnuna

As part of the Flexible Learning Project, I’ve done a variety of tasks including feedback analysis, creating presentations and we even starred in our own film showcasing our brand-new digital tool, the Jisc discovery tool! This is an online tool used to assess your digital skills and gives you a report explaining where you’re proficient and where you can improve. As an intern, we have tested this tool and made sure it’s user friendly and added value to the student experience before it went live. But, if you do not wish to participate in the filming side of things, you have the choice to opt out of that task; you’re never forced to do anything you’ve not consented to!

Since my contract on this assignment has been extended, I will continue to see this assignment through its next few stages, and I look forward to seeing how we increase student choice and flexible learning at a greater scale.

Being a part of the Flexible learning project has been a truly engaging experience. My work essentially focuses on exploring different avenues on how the university can extend flexibility over pace, place time, mode and qualification can support learners' individual choices. My work includes creating content in the form of writing articles and also getting involved in creating some video promotional material. I’ve been a part of several panel discussions to get feedback from students and help the University build our policy overall. Lastly, we also work on strategies that increase awareness about the FLP and its benefits to the larger student community. Overall, I believe this job represents a lot more to me than just another internship. It represents the opportunity to help shape the university policy to reflect the needs of thousands of current and future students.
