The overall vision for the ECAAP (Embedding Content Across Academic Programmes) toolkit is that it can be used at every level within a Higher Education facility to track and embed content in modules, stages and programmes and ultimately link the delivery of this content to graduate attributes. The objective of the first stage of this project is to explore the feasibility of creating such a toolkit, through a mixture of desk research and a worked example.

Why is this project important?

The ECAAP project will develop a process that will make it much easier to develop programmes in line with graduate attributes and programme aims. It will also provide departments with a method of checking where specific content is, or can be, embedded across programmes.

What will be delivered or different at the end of this SATLE project?

There will be a workable draft of the ECAAP tool available for use, that may be digitised in the future. This will be supported by a operational guidelines document that will provide detailed instructions on how the tool may be useful across various levels of the university.

Project news

  • The ECAAP (Embedding Content Across Academic Programmes) Team have completed a literature review that helped to direct the design of the toolkit.
  • An initial draft of the toolkit has been developed and trialed. The next step is to review the effectiveness of version 1 of the toolkit and continue to make improvements.
