Plan
Background
This project is to help understand the direction of travel for the College with regards to the Virtual Learning environments we use.
As per the College strategy, there is a strong driver to ensure that, wherever possible, we utilise the central University VLE platforms to gain the best value for money.
Priority and Funding
This is a priority 3 project, which is core grant-funded, and is categorised as 'Dicretionary'.
It is priority number 6 in the programme og MVM portfolio projects.
Impact and Dependencies
This project is not expected to have any immediate affect on any other projects. It is expected that it will provide a starting point for any future project that will encompass rolling out the Speedwell software across the University of Edinburgh network.
Background
This project will examine the current and planned use of Speedwell software across the College of Medicine and Veterinary Medicine and provide guidance on how a College-wide implementation could be achieved, including what is needed to successfully deploy the functionality to deliver exams online.
