Abstract

This paper provides insights into the unique operation of a multi-campus university and its pursuit to improve the quality of the student learning experience. The paper outlines the institutional repositioning of learning and teaching and discusses the beginning of this journey in terms of improving educational practice in the delivery of courses through the use of the newly adopted Learning Management System (LMS), Moodle. The limitations of past practices are reflected upon within which the new adoption strategies are discussed through the lens of the RIPPLES model, the elements of which include Resources, Infrastructure, People, Policies, Learning, Evaluation and Support (Surry, Ensminger & Haab 2005). The paper highlights the critical influence of these factors in the change management of the new LMS, and outlines an approach for sustaining the renewal of educational practice. The paper concludes with an action plan for continuing the renewal journey through action research.
