For Students
The BMU has developed many of the educational technology programs used in curricula across the Faculty.
Two primary drivers of the BMU's design and development activities are students' learning needs and the seamless integration of educational technology programs within their courses.
The technology based resources that have been developed by the BMU are available for use in problem-based learning tutorial rooms the Student Computer Resource Centre and clinical locations.
