A Guardian supplement published today,  looks at the way technology has transformed education over the last decade. Sponsored by JISC to launch its ‘Student experiences of technology’ campaign, the supplement – ‘Digital Student’ – explores the achievements of institutions in this area and some of the future challenges as universities and colleges look to exploit technology and place the student experience at the heart of learning and teaching.

Podcasting, wikis, immersive worlds such as Second Life and texting are just some of the technologies highlighted in the publication, technologies that have placed technology at the heart of the learner experience. How such technologies have impacted on assessment, the management of intellectual property rights, student progression and retention, the building of new and more flexible learning spaces, is also a focus of the supplement.
