6.0 Case studies

Read about how case studies were used to gather information for the review.

To shine a light on innovative practice and support the sharing of learning, case studies were collected from individuals and organisations who currently use innovative digital technologies and methods to enhance learning. Organisations were identified through Health Education England’s Digital Academy networks and from our focus groups and were used to provide real examples of how and why digital technologies are being applied in learning settings.

Case studies can be found within the main body of the report, or via the links below.
