Why the VLE move?
• Small institution• HEI status in 2013, towards DAPS (Degree Awarding
Powers) for autonomy away from UoL• Needed our own systems (alternative potentially
complex)• Out of necessity a very short period of time
5
• Long implementation period prior to year 1• Pilot #1
• Diploma in Tropical Nursing Dec 2014 intake• 80 students, 3 weeks• Brightspace with UoL systems (email, SIS etc.)
• Pilot #2• Same course, May 2015 intake• Brightspace all new LSTM systems (email, SIS, sharepoint intranet)• Good feedback – leading to changes/improvements to interface
• Sept 2015 – All courses in Brightspace• 4 diplomas, 33 MSc units

Transition
Approach: Staff user perspective• No students with us longer than one year so no retraining required apart from
inductions
• Time periods• Staff engagement• Feedback, continued improvement
