LSIS Effective Practice Case Studies
The Learning and Skills Improvement Service (LSIS) is concerned with post-compulsory education and training.These case studies describe the work of providers in the sector and are a valuable source of information on a range of strategies for improving performance. Case studies are from providers throughout England and cover topics as varied as:
• assessment and diagnostic procedures
• developing STEM in the community
• improving engagement, achievement and recruitment in chemistry
• CNC techniques in engineering
• approaches to learner feedback and evaluation
• vocational contexts for maths
The wide variety of resources include all STEM subjects and show how providers have applied strategies for improvement in their institutions.
HEALTH and SAFETY
Any use of a resource that includes a practical activity must include a risk assessment.
Please note that collections may contain ARCHIVE resources, which were developed at a much earlier date.
Since that time there have been significant changes in the rules and guidance affecting laboratory practical work.
Further information is provided in our Health and Safety guidance.
Embedding Functional Skills
Produced by the Learning and Skills Improvement Service (LSIS), these case studies describe work done by practitioners to explore the effective embedding of functional skills in STEM teaching and learning. As well as focusing on functional mathematics, these projects explore a range of issues relevant to the FE and skills sector,…
Employer Engagement
Produced by the Learning and Skills Improvement Service (LSIS), these case studies describe work done by practitioners focusing on engaging employers with STEM teaching and learning in order to develop courses and materials that effectively meet employers’ needs and arm students with relevant, up to date industry knowledge.…
Enrichment and Enhancement
Produced by the Learning and Skills Improvement Service (LSIS), these case studies describe work done by practitioners to develop enrichment and enhancement activities for students studying STEM-based subjects. These projects, drawn from across the FE and skills sector, present a wide range of possible ways of enhancing learners’…
Equality and Diversity
Produced by the Learning and Skills Improvement Service (LSIS), these case studies describe work done by practitioners to promote and enhance equality and diversity for learners across STEM subjects. These projects, drawn from organisations across the FE and skills sector, show a wide range of approaches to tackling both gender issues…
Progression Through STEM
Produced by the Learning and Skills Improvement Service (LSIS), these case studies describe work done by practitioners to support learners’ progression through STEM, whether from school to college, or to HE or employment. The projects, drawn from organisations across the FE and skills sector, explore a variety of activities…
Harnessing Technology
Produced by the Learning and Skills Improvement Service (LSIS), these case studies describe work done by practitioners to harness technology in STEM teaching and learning. The projects, drawn from organisations across the FE and skills sector, demonstrate a wide variety of both technology available and approaches to embedding…
Knowledge and Technology Transfer (KTT)
Produced by the Learning and Skills Improvement Service (LSIS), these case studies describe work done by practitioners to disseminate knowledge. The academic study of KTT recognises that sharing learning is much more than simply moving information from ‘A’ to ‘B’; the successful transfer of knowledge and technology…
