| Introduction and Overview Leeds College of Art and Design (LCAD). MoleNET LCAD was a single institution project; the aim was to create a shift in curriculum away from an instructive to a constructive pedagogical model underpinning the teaching and learning. One of the objectives was to ‘strengthen learner skills and confidence in the use of etechnologies’ through increasing their accessibility to learning resources both in and outside of the classroom. In particular learner’s historical and contextual knowledge of Art and Design and critical thinking skills were targeted and the mobile devices were used in order to enable this increase in accessibility to all learners despite their socio- economic profile or learning style. This case-study takes place in both the Contextual Studies lessons (a core unit of study on the National Diploma) and the additional AS Art and Design studio lessons. The learner cohort was a particularly large group of 36 learners, the learning needs were to particularly facilitate visual and active learners and the (Key skills) literacy levels ranged from 1 to 3. Learner X was part of this learner cohort and his socio-economic profile (according to data collected by the National Arts Learning Network monitoring form) was a 6, which together with other indicators classifies learner X in the widening participation (WP) category. In addition learner X was described by his tutors (AS tutor and the CS tutor) as a quiet individual, who would often not engage within classroom discussions. Therefore learner X is the type of student that the project wanted to support and it is in this sense that learner X was selected as the case-study. Ultimately, this case-study suggests that learner X perhaps would not have achieved as well in the ND1/AS Art and Design course without the introduction of mobile teaching and learning this academic year. |
