My name is Matt and I’m from South Wales, UK. I’ve been a vocational education and training practitioner for the last 12 years specialising in work-based business and management qualifications.
Most of my delivery and assessment is done remotely but it’s quite basic so I’m looking for ways to make better use of existing technology. I’m particularly interested in e-assessment, and in using social media to facilitate discussions - especially LinkedIn as most of my learners use this already.
I haven’t studied with the OU before but I have completed numerous distance learning qualifications and MOOCs - it’s definitely my preferred method of studying.
In the limited free time I have I enjoy reading thrillers, I play the bass guitar poorly, and recently I’ve started to dabble in writing fiction.
I’m looking forward to getting to know everyone better as we work through the course.
