Its institutional role far exceeds supporting colleagues in the use of learning technology: the team fulfils an enabling role, critical to capacity building and scaling up Northampton\u2019s excellent provision. It collaborates with academics and course teams to identify pedagogic needs that appropriate learning technologies can help them address. Through such collaborations, the team embarks on transformational projects leading to innovative and successful experiences across different disciplines and modes of study, as well as research outputs. This is a great achievement not only for the LearnTech team and for Library and Learning Services, but also for the University as a whole.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Republished with permission from <a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.northampton.ac.uk\/learntech\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer\">blogs.northampton.ac.uk\/learntech<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"info\">Rob Howe<br \/>\nHead of Learning Technology<br \/>\nUniversity of Northampton<\/p>\n<p class=\"note\">If you enjoyed reading this article we invite you to join the Association for Learning Technology (ALT) as an individual member, and to encourage your own organisation to join ALT as an organisational or sponsoring member<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The Northampton LearnTech Team are winners in the team category of the 2014 ALT Learning Technologist of the Year Award.
