Abstract | Purpose - Studying at university today is a complex undertaking. Not only have the characteristics of the student cohort changed significantly in recent years, but the exponential growth of technological innovation has also impacted markedly on the study environment. Issues such as student transition and retention are receiving considerable attention, and the quality of learning and teaching has become an important consideration. While support for students from outside the faculty is still seen as useful, it is recognised that contextualised support facilitates deeper learning. This case study focuses on a virtual learning environment designed through collaboration between the Library, Learning & Teaching Support and the Faculty of Business and Law at the University of Southern Queensland. |
