“General digital skills could be improved by including a

digital element in all further education courses, as well as

» Teachers have developed some outstanding and innovative e-learning

materials where learners use three-dimensional camcorders to record

assessments and prepare projects

» Learners use the college’s virtual learning environment extensively to

support their studies and to develop their independent learning

» Teachers and students make extensive use of the electronic tracking and

monitoring system to promote students’ progress

What does Ofsted say effective use of technology looks like?

» Learners are highly effective independent learners. The measured and

skilful use of information and learning technology, with engaging virtual

learning environment sites in many subject areas stimulate learners to

carry out research outside the classroom.

» Information technology resources are modern and exceptionally well used

in many subjects by both lecturers and learners

» Staff monitor and track learners’ progress closely and, using this

information, successfully encourage learners to aim for high grades
