The Multimedia Unit's services include advice and support for flexible learning including a diverse range of identified Flexible Learning development priorities, incuding specialist advice in multimedia technical development and in educational design.
Development is undertaken jointly with academic staff using a team-based collaborative approach.
The tools and techniques used for multimedia development are reasonably mature, however this is a dynamic industry area and a strong focus on research is required to remain at the forefront of innovation and productivity. GFLS staff are responsible for tools research, selection and installation with some specialist support from ITS where required.
