– Cross-programme view of assessment , learning activities and learning outcomes– Better guidance on expected learning activities– Different ways to visualise and access the module resources– The ability for students to comment on, and supplement, resources and learning activities– More consistent and more intuitive experience – Better search facilities – Potential for better understanding of programme looking forwards and looking back

• For staff

– Automatically generates a programme view of assessment – Shows a programme view of other learning activities (bottlenecks, resources issues) – Better sense of students (eg through level of student additions to resources - enhanced

data analytics will be part of the project)– An easier interface to create richer content
