\"\"<\/a>The honest answer to this question is, ‘it depends’. A good NILE site will de different depending on your subject, mode of delivery, level of delivery, and various other factors. As you’d expect, as much as possible we like to avoid the idea that a one-size-fits-all approach is possible to learning design. However, what is sometimes useful when trying to come up with ideas for things to do in NILE is to look at what other people have been doing. To make this easier, we have collected together a few sites which we feel are quite interesting, and have made them available as self-enrol (and self-unenrol) NILE organisations.<\/p>\n

If you’d like to have a look at any of these sites, just do the following:<\/p>\n

1. Log in to NILE
\n2. Click on the ‘Sites and Organisations’ tab
\n3. \u00a0Search in the ‘Organisation Search’ box for either, LTC, SSAS, PSAS, CRIT101
\n4. Enrol on the site<\/p>\n

\"Enrol<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Currently there are four NILE sites available as self-enrol organisations. These are:<\/p>\n

\u2022 Let’s Teach Computing (LTC)<\/em>
\n\u2022 Study Skills for Academic Success (SSAS)<\/em>
\n\u2022 Postgraduate Skills for Academic Success (PSAS)<\/em>
\n\u2022 Critical Thinking – A Practical Introduction (CRIT101)<\/em><\/p>\n

If you’ve got a good NILE site and would like to make it available as a self-enrol organisation please get in touch with us at: LD@northampton.ac.uk<\/a><\/p>\n

And finally, if you think that you’ve got a great NILE site, you might like to enter it for a Blackboard Exemplary Course Award:\u00a0http:\/\/blackboard.com\/ecp<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
