  3. SCROLLA – research strands • Networked Learning • networked learning environments and their communities of use, issues of pedagogy, teaching development and learning support within them • Assessment • assessment supported by ICT, including issues of development, evaluation and implementation of CAA • Policy and Strategy • issues surrounding the educational use of on-line learning from local and global perspectives

  4. SCROLLA – objectives • Draw together major research activities across different disciplines • Generate new research activities by providing a focus for collaboration • Establish a community wide research forum regarding policy & ICT use in education • Build on existing strategic alliances in Scotland • Report on current developments • Organise multidisciplinary seminars on current research and its implications

  5. Communication Networking and dissemination • Meeting with practitioners, policy makers, and researchers in all educational sectors • Newsletters • SCROLLA symposia serieswww.scrolla.ac.uk/papers • Accessibility forum • Website – blogwww.scrolla.ac.uk/log/

  6. Research Activities at Glasgow • Characterising online learning environments • Theory from psychology, education, sociology, etc to develop tools for analysis & understanding(McAteer et al 2002) • Coding for co-construction of knowledge(Chappel et al, 2002) • Methodological tools for analysis & interpretation • Online communities: theoretical perspectives • Reviewing research and practice literature, developing models for 'communities of practice' (Harris & Niven) • Developing models of information literacy for learning
