FOCUS on technology-supported learning in further education

Pages 75-88 | Published online: 14 Dec 2016
 

Abstract

This paper introduces FOCUS, a ‘one-stop shop’ for technology-supported learning resources designed and developed by a consortium of higher and further education partners. It reports on an investigation of the issues surrounding the adaptation of this HE-orientated resource to an FE context. This involved piloting FOCUS with FE staff to assess its suitability. The issues raised by this process are discussed and general implications for the adaptation of generic HE resources to the FE sector are identified.
