Learning Technologies and Digital Media (LTDM)


Teaching & Learning Experiences


Every digital learning design created in NTU is driven with the emphasis on student engagement. With this in mind, both the Virtual Adaptive & Distribution Learning Model (VADL) and NTULearn Ecosystem are vital to the delivery of learning solutions for learners. ​ 

The multi-dimensional mix of the VADL model allows us to cater to different demands of today’s learners and the change in learning landscape. Together with the NTULearn ecosystem, both are anchors to demonstrate the NTU Smart Campus vision to harness digital and technology enhanced solutions for higher education; enabling tailored hybrid learning, time efficiency, and empowering learners to construct and build upon existing knowledge – for there lies the true power of learning.

It provides various communication and collaborative tools such as Announcements, Send Email, Discussion Board, Blogs, and Wikis to facilitate online teaching and learning.
