eSTEeM book chapter publication

29th January 2016

We are delighted to announce the publication of a book chapter by eSTEeM Project Leader and Science Staff Tutor, Victoria Nicholas. 

Science students need to gain practical skills in their qualifications. Students now gain these practical skills using mobile technology as many of our modules are online. This case study investigates the shift in perception that students have about online practical science. Prior to study they often think they won’t be learning “real science”. After studying the modules they can see the benefits of online practical science and are keen for more.
