Theme: Curriculum designThis was a new list of themed resources for 2014 which started as a result of discussions at the HEA’s One year on workshops held in Manchester and London on 4 and 5 June 2013. With the introduction of a new national curriculum in England from September 2014, this list should be viewed as a starting point. All the items on the list are in alphabetical order, and enough information is included in the referencing to allow resources to be located readily. If the individual resources are to be used (in course documentation, academic work, etc.), you will need to adapt this to fit your own institutional referencing requirements.
