Supporting Learning Technology in Higher Education J A Longstaffe, K D Whittlestone, J D Edwards J Williams and P M Hammond Educational Technology Service, University of Bristol A handbook of strategies on the formation and running of a unit to support the adoption of learning technology by a research orientated university. This handbook sets out to share the experiences and wisdom accumulated during the first four years of operation of a support service for learning technology in an established metropolitan university. It has also been informed by four previous years experience of learning technology related projects. It covers the structure, function, management and financing of the Service as well as academic, political, management and other strategies which have been useful in its inception and running. Many of these ideas and strategies are generic in nature and could equally well work in other institutions. It is our hope that readers will find the book and the model it contains useful in promoting educational technology in their own institutions. "Any institution wishing to set up similar services would be well advised to use this handbook as a reference and guide" Brian Shields, Co-ordinator, ITTI. "You and your staff are to be congratulated on producing a very valuable handbook.......there is so much basic information in the text that it makes a valuable resource for use in other institutions, particularly those Universities who are contemplating moving into CBL" Keith Duguid, Director, Department of Medical Illustration University of Aberdeen.
