    Thank you, Christy – that sounds very promising and I will definitely follow this up.

    Thank you very much for your response, Madelaine. I will have a look at those references. Most of our cur current delivery is essentially face-to-face, but there are pockets where a blended learning approach is operating. I would like to see blended learning integrated more effectively, but the online component would mainly be to enhance the F2F rather than to replace it.

    Hello everyone. I would like to ask the the CoI community if they are aware of any examples of Universities which have adopted the CoI framework as a model on an institution-wide basis.

    I am currently involved in a significant University-wide programme at my own institution which seeks (amongst other things) to transform the student and staff experience of learning and and teaching. We have identified a variety of different work streams and the programme is progressing well. However, I feel personally that it needs a unifying theme to draw all the different strands of the programme together. In my opinion, the Community of Inquiry framework could provide exactly that, and I am intending to propose it to my colleagues. However, I am anticipating challenges and queries about this, so I am looking for evidence from other institutions where such an approach has been successfully adopted.

    I would be very grateful for any suggestions.
