UniSAnet

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

UniSAnet is the online learning environment of the University of South Australia.

[edit] Services

The UniSAnet facility, accessed via the World Wide Web, provides a set of services being phased in over time, in response to different levels of academic staff and student need. It is the masthead for all online dimensions of the University’s teaching and learning program, incorporating existing developments and providing for the progressive inclusion of a range of services for students, including:

  • home pages for all academic staff linked to subjects they teach and courses on offer,
  • access to course content and related study resources,
  • teaching and learner support mechanisms including interactive communication capacity between teacher and students and among students, and
  • administrative services related to teaching and learning.

UniSAnet accommodates innovative online teaching and learning resources already developed by individual academic staff. However, a standard set of authoring and communication tools have been adopted across the University and form the basis for putting further materials online.
