ASEL

Audio is emerging as a key area of development across the HE sector in meeting the individual needs of an increasingly diverse range of learners, promoting active engagement, enhancing learning and enriching the learning environment. The ASEL project developed, implemented and evaluated the use of audio within next generation technologies to support, enhance, and personalise the learner experience. It also captured effective lecturer and learner practices from across the domains of teaching and learning that will help inform future practices across the HE sector. The project focused on using audio within next generation technologies in three key areas: self reflection, assessment and collaborative learning.

For a comprehensive account of tools and techniques for implementing audio to support self-reflection, assessment and collaborative learning, examples of audio-based learning and case studies and details on the software WAFT (web-based audio feedback tool), audio and video podcasts and the tool PIRAF (Pseudo-interactive real time audio feedback tool) go to the project wiki www.aselactive.com/
