Education leaders at universities can improve the quality of their teaching with the use of technology, online platforms and social media. This is according to writer Russ Thorne, who claimed in an article for the Independent that making learning materials more effective could start with making adjustments to the way institutions use the internet. He said it may be useful for individuals to create a custom homepage on their website that will allow students to see regular updates from relevant blogs, news channels or other faculties and automatically filter results on to a single page for convenience. Another good idea is to roll out a virtual learning environment that includes a forum and other necessary resources, which could detail the contents of lectures and seminars and help out students who miss classes due to a clashing timetable.
