+Conclusions
Motivation: helping teachers/designers make more innovative use of technologies to create better learner experiences
Approach: development of a range of resources, tools, methods and events to support this
Evidence-base and agile development: on-going evaluation and reflection to enhance understanding and drive future developments
Reflection: How effective is this? Where to next? Is it transferable? How “open” can we really expect teachers/learners to be?
