    Other ways to fulfil your resource needs
    • Include software needs in your programme budget. Discuss this with your Programme Leader in advance, if appropriate
    • Get more colleagues on board to trial new resources. This can be facilitated by budgets from cluster teaching and learning leads and/or through communities of practice (for cross-cluster trials)
    • Approach the Communications and Information Technology Division (CIT). They can budget accordingly if there is strong justification to implement software on a campus-wide basis
