- Groups are central to Global Campus. Each institution and Award scheme has it’s own group, and Students are members of these groups automatically Each group has it’s own noticeboard where members can post comments, share links, and update each other. Each group also has a dedicated forum and a chat room.Anyone can create a Group. It can be private - invitation only, or public, open to all myWales users. The Group owner manages requests to join and invitations. They also manage the forums, membership and features available. Don’t need forums? You don’t have to have them in your group. Groups can be useful tools for learning – both for assignments, for classes to discuss a project outside the classroom, or in distance learning to co-ordinate a class.
- Discussion forums are built into each Group automatically.They be used for academic discussion, class assignments, information exchange or just chatting.
- Global Campus is integrated with Google Applications.Users receive an email address for life @my.wales.ac.ukYou can create, and share documents, spreadsheets and presentations from any computer with web access.Staff have access too, so sharing and collaboration is possible between course and seminar groups.You can see your latest email and documents from the myWales dashboard, at a glance.
