  1. The Effective Lifelong Learning Inventory in Higher Education Project: at Worcester John Peters, Heather Barrett, Scott Buckler, Josh Cooprider, Helen Shaw and Rose Watson

  2. Learning Outcomes • Outline Worcester’s part in the ELLI in HE project • Discuss the research underpinning the ELLI • Introduce the 7 dimensions of learning power • Study graphic representations of learning power produced by ELLI • Examine student responses to ELLI at Worcester

  3. Plan • Brief outline of the ELLI in HE project • Brief outline of Worcester ELLI project • Overview of the Effective Lifelong Learning Inventory • Introduction to the 7 dimensions of learning power • A look at example ELLI graphic reports • Interim Results

  4. ELLI in HE Project • ELLI developed by Bristol University with a schools focus • A consortium of 14 HEIs led by Northumbria to look at ELLI’s value for: • PDP • Employability • Discussion of informal learning • To customise ELLI materials for HE

  5. ELLI @ Worcester • Innovation and development grant 2007/8 • 4 Institutes • Business [28 students on careers and PD module, level 5/6] • Education [level 4 Ed Studies & level 3 FDLS] • Sport [100 students on WBL modules, level 5 HND & level 6 UMS] • ASGA [level 4 UMS geography mandatory module] • ELLI pre and post test • students to discuss initial results and undertake a personal intervention • Evaluation of student responses

  6. Interim Results at Worcester • Some practical problems • Obtaining detail of log-ons • Housing groups at computers to do the test • Printing individual graphs • Re-taking / accessing the test • Positive engagement reported by large majority • Establishes a language for discussing learning • Limited evidence that interventions ‘worked’

  7. Student feedback: issues • I really didn’t like completing the questionnaire • I learnt that I am not as creative as I thought I was. I have also learnt I have low resilience, something to think about improving • Resilience is lower [2nd time] – end of term?

  8. Student feedback: positives • My profile was no surprise to me • It made me see more of myself • ELLI did make me realise that ‘feeling the fear’ and doing it anyway may actually be a good way to deal with my studies • It made me realise there are ways of improving learning domains by concentrating on that certain area

  9. An Uncertain Future? • Valuable but there are cost implications • ELLI is probably moving from Bristol to Gloucestershire • Expected changes to organisation, pricing and operation • ELLI in HE project ongoing and customisation of ELLI for HE still an issue
