Welcome to our Digital Discovery Series

Digital Discovery logo

Initially developed to celebrate 200 years of excellence in education at the University of Manchester, the eLearning team released a series of events and resources in the 23/24 academic year, aimed at improving digital education in the Faculty.

Our Digital Discovery Series for 2025 has a Canvas twist! We aim to showcase some of the useful tools that come with our new Central Learning Environment.
