Abstract
In response to increasing student numbers in practice based subjects, an ongoing project to develop online learning support materials for a BA (Hons) Fashion Design programme is exploring ways in which video based resources, in conjunction with virtual learning environments, can support practical demonstrations. Intended as complimentary learning support materials, rather than replacing face to face demonstrations in taught sessions, this project investigates the ways in which students respond to the learning materials, and preferences they show for the different methods of learning used within a practice based setting.
