Grant Scheme
Overview
Due to the overwhelming positive feedback from students and staff who have participated in the pilots we are taking the SHE initiative further and an internal grant scheme was set up in early 2010.
Applications were invited from faculties to develop online simulations of real-life experiences that would have a direct impact upon student learning and future employment prospects.
Of all the submissions, 5 were awarded funding. These projects cover a wide range of subjects, methodologies and creative use of ICT.
