Very easy to embed sections of the reading list into the VLE

Section-by-section integration increases students engagement with the reading

It keeps all resources for the module in one place

Understanding what our students want and how they learn

16

Through the SAGE-Sussex University partnership, we have been fortunate enough to tap into the minds of todays students and scholars. Their weekly insights from blogs, as well as the results from their market research among peers, have been instrumental in our understanding of the market as we try to align our publishing programme with the needs of students and lecturers.

Being granted access to one of our key stakeholder groups has provided us with an unprecedented insight into the working minds of researchers, the challenges they face, what they want from a text, a publisher, the research that they consume.

Katie BakerPR and Public Affairs Manager, SAGE
