What does ’embedding’ mean?
One of the “hot topics” at the HEA Pathfinder workshop in York that I attended with the University of Leicester’s Adelie project was the definition of “embedding” – which was important to the description of what the Pathfinder pilots were asked to do.
How can an institution measure embedding? What does it mean – is it the provision of technology or something much more radical relating to attitudes and blends of learning opportunities?
For me: it is about embedding skills relating to learning technologies into lecturers’ (and other staff’s) everyday practice of designing, delivering and facilitating learning opportunities.
The School of Biological Sciences has gathered some fairly good data about embedding.
