A new case study reveals how we have been of help to our FE colleagues.

The JISC Service Case Study on JISC Digital Media highlights how our guidance helped Barony College’s Learning Materials Development Unit to produce a variety of visually rich learning and training materials.

JISC Digital Media’s free Helpdesk Service provided expert information and guidance on capturing and formatting images, managing resources and copyright issues.

In addition, our hands-on training courses in Photoshop skills and image management were invaluable:

“I found the day so useful, very intense, but very good. I understood things that had never struck me before, like why it might be better to use black and white images rather than colour in our workbooks. Colour can be a distraction when you are trying to illustrate something very detailed and specific. It’s also cheaper if you are going to print the document.”
Christine Dudgeon (Learning materials development unit manager, Barony College)

The JISC website has a series of JISC Service Case Studies that demonstrate the expertise available to learning providers in the FE sector.
