In a digital-first education landscape, the Digital Pedagogy and Teaching Skills Framework (DPTSF) highlights building Virtual Learning Environments as a key focus, emphasising well-designed, accessible, and structured digital content aligned with university accessibility policies. This approach embeds a culture of inclusion and creates a supportive Moodle environment where all students can succeed.
Our DPTSF sets out the expectations and skills to help empower you when exploring digital pedagogy
We expect all who support and deliver teaching to:
- Use Virtual Learning Environments (VLEs) – Moodle as our central component of teaching and learning.
- Follow our Moodle baseline and template to ensure consistency across all our courses.
- Curate digitally inclusive and accessible teaching materials that we share with our students in a timely manner.
This can be achieved by:
- Understand how to use Moodle to fulfil the essential baseline functions.
- Import, export and transfer courses across academic years.
- Annually update our teaching materials in our VLEs, including our recurring courses.
