1 The student voice – students’ experience of Blackboard (in their own words) Judy Gracey & Simon Starr Foundation Degree in Childhood Studies Canterbury Christ Church University

2 About Our Research Q. What is our students’ experience of Blackboard and how might we act as tutors to improve it? –survey across all students –group discussions Q. Might filming discussions be a good way to listen to the students’ voice?

3 Sector View Learners value online course info and resources; individual experiences of blended activities vary (Sharpe et al, 2006) Factors affecting engagement (Creanor et al, 2006): –meta-cognition –choice and control over own learning –tutors’ own engagement learners also “rely heavily on informal support networks” Digital divide still a “potent concern” (JISC, 2007)

4 Our Students’ View: Survey Initial findings will become available shortly before the conference (returns currently being analysed) Of course, this will be second-hand news to you …

5 Our Students’ View: Group Discussions … for a first-hand account, we’ll watch this 15 min film of groups of 1 st, 2 nd (Foundation Degree) and 3 rd year (top-up) students talking about their experiences. no tutors present discussion prompts only

6 Our Students’ View: Group Discussions Discussion: what do you think? Our findings … will be presented at the conference (because we would be interested in what you hear/see in the our students’ voice first …*) * Spoiler alert! See notes for this slide for some initial findings.

7 What Now? We propose the following developments in our use of Blackboard: (to be presented at conference – our tutors are currently analysing the videos)
