Going viral: Exploring opportunities for whole of institution collaborations that enhance student learning (Old ID 21925)
Role
Principal Investigator
Description
Enhancing student learning outcomes through a judicious use of blended learning approaches continues to develop traction across the Australian tertiary sector. During 2014 JCU has adopted a collaborative, whole of institution approach to developing and supporting blended learning. This approach has led to collaborations between professional and academic staff, particularly around the purposeful use of technological tools. This project aims to investigate the way that viral leadership defined as “the promotion of ideas, knowledge and skills on an ad hoc basis via informal personal connections” (Cleuett, et al., 2011, p. 4) promotes the use of technology and supports blended learning.
