Starting to think about resources for next years teaching?

Linkedin Learning is an online library of high quality video training courses covering anything from photography to programming and business skills.

The university’s premium account gives you access to over 150,000 tutorials written by industry experts with more added every week.

Mobile apps allow students and you to learn at any time and any place

Staff Information

Student Information  

Lynda.com service moved to the new LinkedIn Learning platform.

It is possible to share LinkedIn Learning (previously Lynda.com) resources via Readinglists@Brighton

The University’s  access to Lynda.com has been transferred to LinkedIn Learning and all user accounts were copied across. If you previously linked to Lynda.com videos from  email or studentcentral or ReadingLists@Brighton  then these links will continue to work for one year. But if you created and shared playlists, links to these may now be broken – see below

Please note there are some differences to the way we can share resources with students and colleagues:

• You must be set-up as an administrator in order to share/recommend resources to others
• LinkedIn Learning allows you to share/ recommend:
  • Individual videos
  • Collections- collection of resources on one topic  (can be personal or shareable)
  • Learning Paths- collection of resources which have to be watched in a particular order
• Many playlists from Lynda.com have been copied into personal collections on LinkedIn Learning but they can only be seen by their owners – this is why some links to old playlists are broken. These personal collections have to be rebuilt as sharable collections.
• If you would like to become an administrator in order to be able to share resources, please email ISWORKSHOPS  or complete this request form.

Once you have been given administrator access videos, collections and learning paths from LinkedIn Learning can be shared with your students using ReadingLists@Brighton and instructions and a short video can be found on our ReadingLists@Brighton support pages.

Top tips:

• Create a separate section within your reading list for these resources
• Ask library staff how to embed sections of the reading list within Study Materials folders so students have seamless access to all the text and audio-visual resources for that particular theme/week.

• better searching,
• ‘collections’ which are like playlists but you can add your own additional resources to them, egg PDF files and your own videos.
• The ability to ‘Like’ videos

The University has agreed a revised Personal  Academic Tutor Policy 

The key elements  that students can expect:

• A named personal tutor who (under normal circumstances)  will be the same for the duration of their students.
• Student at  should be offered a minimum of 3 tutorials a year at level 4 and 2 at level 5, & 6 (combination of group and
  individual) to discuss engagement, progression, support and academic experience.

The majority of staff are are likely to have Personal Academic Tutor responsibilities.

It’s year two of the Learning Analytics Pilot and time to gather your thoughts and feedback. We are still trying to find out what the university wants from this project and there is now a senior management steering group meeting to discuss the university requirements.

Our steer has always been to develop a tool that supports our students and we are already gathering feedback from them. This is your chance to have some input into this project so please take the time to answer the four questions below.

The National Student Survey (NSS)  and the Brighton Student Survey (BSS) launched on 5th February.

There are staff briefing notes available for the NSS  and for the BSS The NSS runs until the 30th April and  BSS runs until 5th March.

We know from experience that if staff are informed and can then introduce the survey, it is more likely that students will complete it and complete with the appropriate consideration. The key messages are that students should consider the whole of their university experience and to remember the positive as well as any points for improvement.

Students will receive a thank you for completing the surveys-  a £5.00 food voucher for the NSS and a Kit-Kat for the BSS. These are available from room 149 for students to collect or can be collected by staff to distribute.

For the NSS there are 13 final year students who are supporting the Business School- they have organised a Big Night In on Thurs 8th Feb 5pm-8pm in Mithras House Canteen  to encourage students to share their views and also showcase  positive developments  at BBS.

There are some PowerPoint slides to support the surveys NSS  and the BSS

Thank you

What are the changes?

The recording process is the same but the location of your processed videos has changed to our
media streaming service.
https://mediastream.brighton.ac.uk
The changes affect how you share your videos with your students because when the videos are
sent to mediastream they are private to just you so you can no longer just share the URL in the email
sent.

Details of how you now share your videos is avaiable here: PDF Guide
