Help Guides for Academic Technology Tools
To get started, please select one of our supported tools and then toggle one or more of the options below to filter the resulting guides. These guides are a 'work in progress' and we welcome input from staff and students with experience in, or questions about, these tools. You can also visit the Tabula manual for advice on that tool.

Get involved
Whilst these pages are not a wiki per se, we believe that an effective route to providing support documentation is through encouraging all stakeholders to participate in identifying, creating and editing the guides to these complex tools.
We are also interested in showcasing use cases for the tools that make up the extended classroom and identifying 'recipes' (i.e. replicable processes that use one or more of our supported tools) which people have found effective in their teaching.
Please get in touch with us via moodle at warwick dot ac dot uk if you would like to be added to the editing team or if you have suggestions for new guides and updates to existing guides.
