» Digital Student phase 1 study conducted a review into students’
expectations and experiences of the digital environment at university
» The study reviewed existing research and survey evidence from
institutions, as well as conducting original interviews and focus groups
» Jisc and its co-design partners (UCISA, SCONUL, RLUK and RUGIT) are
now supporting a consultation phase across the higher education sector
which will inform the final guidance to institutions and further actions by
Jisc and its partners
» A parallel study in FE and Skills with similar consultation events will
shortly get underway
» Review of current practice in secondary schools is also underway

5. Digital Student - Phase 1
12/03/2014 Jisc Digital Student http://digitalstudent.jiscinvolve.org.uk 5
» An initial study reviewed existing evidence about students'
expectations and experiences of study in a digital environment.
This includes both:
› digital environment generally e.g. wifi, IT support, access to
devices and printers
› the study environment in its digital aspects e.g. how digital
resources and media are used; what software students access,
how they use their own devices and services to support learning
› The study also looked at how universities collect, manage and
analyse such information locally, and how they engage students
in a productive dialogue about their digital experience.

8. Challenges for institutions
» Shift emphasis from lectures to different modes of
learning – enquiry based, group learning, feedback
» Service providers also service users – feedback loop
and user-centred approach
» Wireless power to student devices
» Have holistics strategy inc. digital and connect with
students’ real experiences (and improving them)
» Provide effective means for listening and
responding to students – including digital means

9. Challenges for institutions
» Give students multiple ways to engage with peers
and others in work/professional/research settings
» Engage all stakeholders in decisions around the ICT /
information environment
» Provide access to up-to-date software, hardware
and environments – coherent strategy
» Digital expertise embedded across the institution
including in academic practices and in each
role/service area

10. Challenges from our study
» students unclear how personal technologies can legitimately
be used in university setting
» students poorly prepared to study with digital technologies
» curriculum slow to change
» teaching staff often lack confidence with digital tech
» lack of joined-up provision or clear responsibility for
students’ digital experience
» BYOD creating new uncertainties and risks
» tension between seamless access and awareness of digital
boundaries e.g. paid for/open content and services
» digital know-how poorly recognised and rewarded

11. Challenges identified from stakeholders
1. Invest sufficiently & continuously in digital environment (leading to)
robust fit-for-purpose infrastructure: parity across sites
2.Seamless access to and effective signposting of information
3. Bring every student up to speed with using digital tech for their course of
study – integrated with subject know-how – communicate value
4.Bring every member of staff up to speed with using digital tech for their
role
5. Use digital tech/media to: build links beyond course, produce digital
footprint/identity, be involved in authentic learning

12. Challenges identified from stakeholders
6. Integrated digital strategy with
– champion and budget
– devolved/shared responsibility/planning
– capacity to respond to emerging open landscape for data, knowledge and learning
7. Ask students – listen – involve them in the response
8. Engage external stakeholders including employers, alumni, community
9.Agile decision making and course (re)design, supported by…
– Big data and analytics
– Qualitative and longitudinal evidence
