The Disruptive Media Learning Lab (DMLL) is a new cross-University experimental unit compromising of 10-15 academics, learning technologists, educational developers and researchers. From Autumn 2014 the Lab will be located on the refurbished top floor of the Frederick Lanchester Library. The role of the DMLL is to challenge and enhance traditional approaches to teaching and learning. It will provide the support, expertise and resources needed to enable projects to experiment with new approaches and technologies. The DMLL is looking to recruit a Principal Project Lead who will lead defined areas of teaching and learning experimentation and innovations within the DMLL at the University in one of the following areas; Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs), Flipped Classrooms, Open Courses, Distance Learning and Gamification. The Lab is designed to work closely and engage with the Coventry University Faculties to embed new approaches to the classroom.

or how I learned to stop worrying and love the
Learning Lab
• respond to external changes which we don’t control (push)
• maximise enhanced capabilities, which we can direct (pull)
• support learning experiments and projects in safe space
• connect, collaborate and experiment

5. The 21st century academy
Traditional educational/
publishing and media
platforms (books) will
not disappear.
Nor will expertise or
authority.
What will change is that
they will be valued
differently

29. • How we can help explore what the 21st century university can be
• What challenges and problems learning technologies we need to address
• Where the core values of what we do lie?
• How to use the capabilities of new media to magnify that value
• How we can develop digitally ‘professional/fluent’ digital natives
• What benefits can we develop from putting technologists, developers, librarians and
Academics together
• What new models/ways of working would be effective /disruptive for HE
• How we can work on developing radically new pedagogies and radically new
relationships with/offers to, our communities
