Using University-supported tools
When choosing tools, it is important to start with tools that are supported by teams at the University. These are subject to contracts agreed between the University and the vendor which ensures prompt support (from UoY teams and vendors where issues are escalated), robust data security and agreed levels of service availability.
The following page provides an overview of available tools and links to key guidance. You can search the tools by type of learning activity or by theme:
