58. Further education and skills – Promoting digital curiosity: new technologies, same passion

In this episode of our further education and skills (FE) podcasts, hosts Louisa Stamatelopoulos and Andrew McFadyen chat to Beth Snowden from Craven College. Throughout this series Andrew and Louisa are joined by experts from further education colleges to shine a light on how they support digital development through the use of our tools, such as the digital elevation tool, building digital capability service and digital experience insights surveys. Beth begins the discussion by sharing details of her dual operational and strategic role at the college, from investigating licenses to co-writing the digital learning strategy, as well as the scale and scope of Craven College. The conversation then turns to the college's focus on embedding digital further into the staff development system, and how their recently launched digital learning strategy has been instrumental in the developments and decisions that are being made. Beth highlights the success of the college's first ever staff development day on digital CPD, with 300 members of staff participating in workshops and even learning to fly drones. Listen to the full episode to also hear about Beth's experiences of Jisc's digital experience insights survey, learning from the digital accessibility community, and tips on getting started with AI.
