Coventry University Case Study
“Cisco is enabling Coventry to take education provision beyond the Campus and into the workplace.
We are looking at location independent working, where we enable people to work at any location at
anytime,” says Latham. “Technology from Cisco and others will provide a new way of doing
education in the workplace. One aspect that will give Coventry a unique selling point is setting up
remote workplace learning centres so that employees don’t have to leave their place of work to get
full access to the University’s learning resources.”

SMART-Campus@CU is enabling Coventry to change the way students experience learning.
Already, the Cisco infrastructure allows students to work anywhere around the Campus, as well as off
Campus, and still have full access to online University resources.

Another example of how Coventry is changing is online enrolment. Traditionally, new students arrive
and queue several times to complete the registration and administration process. Two weeks later
they would receive their grant cheque. “This is bureaucratic, slow and doesn’t give students a warm
feeling when they arrive,” says Latham. “So we’re putting all of this online and the Cisco infrastructure
is enabling us to deliver a whole host of enabling processes which give power back to individuals to
do it for themselves.”

The Serious Games Institute (SGI) is an example of how Coventry, in partnership with Cisco and
others, is using technology to transform learning. Cisco wireless networking and location services
combined with gaming software enable information to be sent automatically to a student based upon
their physical location on the Campus or virtual location. Cisco is also helping Coventry develop and
bring to market a number of pathfinder projects which are innovative education applications at the
leading edge of technology. Coventry University Repository Virtual Environment (CURVE), for
example, brings together research, libraries, documentation and experience from individuals and
organisations on subjects such as transport, automotive design, and health, turning information into
practical and useful knowledge.

Coventry University Blogging Academic (CUBA) takes a range
of online communication and collaboration products and
combines them to form a tool to help academic researchers to
work and communicate. Built on an open source blogging tool,
it includes a series of tools such as web conferencing, wikis and
an image gallery which users can customise and embellish to
share, expand and deepen peoples’ expertise.

“You can’t deliver innovation - extending from Internet access,
collaboration, e-learning and extending the Campus, to
improving facility management and leading edge pathfinder
projects – if you don’t have the infrastructure that we have built
with Cisco. Connectivity and interoperability are the key
elements of the network. As the technology advances and
the same backbone accommodates more and more services
and facilities, the greater the opportunity for transformation,”
says Latham.
