In discussion with ... Rachel Heathershaw using Web Conferencing (GoTo Meeting)

The video (3 mins) is part of our In Discussion with Series. Which aims to share practice in how lecturers have been using appropriate technologies to enhance their teaching, assessment and the student learning experience.

This discussion is with Rachel Heathershaw (Senior Lecturer in the School of Nursing and Midwifery), around how she has been using Web Conferencing, using GoTo Meeting in her teaching. Rachel outlines how it has been used on a distance learning module. Two key message I took from this was;

• her students become comfortable with the technology so they could complete online synchronous learning activities and peer assessments


• the Elevate Team need to work out how to devolve more responsibility to allow her to record sessions
