– demand, perceptions and training needs

This publication is the end product from HEFCE who commissioned the National Union of Students to undertake research into the demand, perceptions and training needs of students in both further and higher education.

"Section 184. Lecturers and staff have widely varying levels of ICT competence.

- One common area of concern for both those who took part in the survey and the discussions was the varying levels of ICT competence on the part of lecturers and staff. Whilst some are clearly skilled or at least able to function in an IT setting, others lack even the most rudimentary ICT skills.

- This has major implications for learning experiences as more and more students arrive at the post-secondary levels with modern requirements and sensibilities."
