ASK is a student centred learning support tool designed to help students tackling their first assignment. It is one of a range of deliverables being developed at Staffordshire University to underpin the University’s strategic approach to information literacy.<\/p>\n
Alison Pope and Julie Adams , the information professionals who led the team which worked on and developed the product, won the prestigious CILIP UC&R Innovation Award in 2007, and are using the prize money to further develop and support this learning tool. They will talk about the product, including recent developments, and there will be a hands on session and chance for discussion and questions, after lunch Bob Glass, from the Dept. of Information and Communications at Manchester Metropolitan University will also talk about how he has worked with Alison and Julie to take the product forward via LearnHigher initiatives.<\/p>\n
