Abstract

In 2018, Victoria University had converted all its classes to a ‘blended learning’ format and was also implementing the Block structure for teaching. Starting with the First Year College, each subject was to be taught in 4-week blocks, and students undertook one subject at a time. This demanded a new way of structuring teaching and learning. A major concern by the executive management team was copyright compliance in a largely online environment later complicated with the onset of COVID-19. In response to these drivers the online interactive copyright training module, which uses interactive software to test the users’ learning, was developed.
