UWS: Provision of a Supported Social Learning Platform

The procurement contact named on the official notice.

We are seeking a strategic partner with whom to develop our student learning ecosystem towards the year 2030.

We are not looking to procure a fixed system which will perform in the current environment; we are seeking to secure a relationship that will assist us in benefitting from the most appropriate inputs into learning design as technology develops, and students needs and expectations evolve.

In particular we want 1. to be in a position to exploit opportunities in AI, AR and VR as they develop, 2. in parallel with developing innovative approaches to teaching and assessment, and 3. supporting our staff as they transition to managing a less homogeneous student population who want to engage in synchronous and asynchronous learning experiences, across a wide range of diverse academic disciplines.
