The Design Studio is a dynamic web-based toolkit which draws together a range of existing and emerging resources around curriculum design and delivery and the role technology plays in supporting these processes and practices. A curriculum lifecycle concept provides a structure for this wiki-based resource and the primary portal to materials whilst tagging provides flexible entry points to assets based on themes such as challenges, technologies and subject areas. The toolkit is not a repository. Resources are contextualised and linked to where they are externally hosted. The resource is being developed as part of the Support and Synthesis project for the JISC Curriculum Design and Delivery programmes and will provide access to project outcomes and outputs as they emerge and will continue to be sustained as a community resource after the programmes end.
