Yesterday saw the second session of the Jisc Adobe transforming together: leading and learning programme. With HE members sharing exciting developments how they had used learnings to raise awareness and interest of Adobe Express across their organisations 🎨 York St. John University have created a small community of practice, involving staff and their ‘12 days of Adobe Express’ provided a great opportunity for sharing the ‘gifts’ that come with the package. Leeds Trinity University's digital media skills learning pathway which offers video, infographics and visually enhanced platforms to upskill staff on Adobe Express was so successful, they had requests for a student version which was released in January. The Manchester Metropolitan University incorporated Adobe in staff development, exploring the potential of Adobe Express to redesign assessment tasks and bring further improvements in inclusion.
