  5. Recent commissioned work Working with diverse groups of learners in the digital age – http://escalate.ac.uk/digitalage Publication builds on 3 years of practitioner-focussed workshops. Case studies i.e. 'stories' from practice from HE teachers about their use of e-learning to support their diverse groups of learners. The practitioners (and their hybrid practices) who responded to the call are as diverse in their digital pedagogies as are their digital learners. The case studies offer lessons on trial and error and resilience and powerful examples of how teachers and learners were experiencing transformation through risk and experimentation.
