The UWS School of Science and Health (SSH) Blended Learning Team uses a range of software,
hardware, pedagogies, environments and production processes in creating a broad range of Blended
Learning content. Our recently launched MiHub facility features new resources to allow academics to
produce high quality designer assisted and self-created media content.
The team consists of 2 Blended Learning Advisors and 5 Blended Learning Designers who along with
some 400 academic, teaching and technical staff work towards the goals of the 'Our Future Program'
which has committed to embedding Blended Learning at the heart of all program curriculums. To this
end, every new first year student at UWS receives an iPad through which to receive, use and submit
course content through the Blackboard Learning Management System, vUWS. 26,000 iPads rolled
out over the past 2 years make it one of the largest such implementations in the higher education
context. The School of Science and Health is one of 9 schools delivering 1600 units to over 40,000
UWS students. Examples of the work created and ideas for the future directions are presented.
