Happy new year everyone.
I have one of those queries which is a bit of shot in the dark and that I might be a minority of one!
The Background
The chances are that you have a copy of this book somewhere in your University libraries.
Having been recommended this (thank you Steve Outram) I borrowed it from our library and decided to buy my own copy.
The book was co-created by 470 practitioners from 45 countries and centres around the canvas template below.
(It seems to be a must-have text in many business schools and for those in start-up industries).
The canvas especially lends itself to the private sector although feedback indicates that it has been adapted by some NHS units.
I have so far come across a couple of examples linked to Education coming from Linnaeus
University, Sweden and Eötvös
Loránd University, Hungary (assessing curriculum implementation effectiveness in a Hungarian private secondary school).
From reading the book and absorbing its key fundamentals what strikes me most is how complex HE is compared to most of the examples (although there is a useful reference to decoupling complex organisations)
and so I am germinating the idea of what would a canvas model for a HE institution look like.
The query
Has anyone in the SDF community picked this up and decided to have a go?
(I am conscious that if an HEI has, then it might be commercially sensitive).
Therefore I would be interested not in the actual canvas itself but the experiences and lessons learned from undertaking the modelling for canvas.
(Just knowing that a UK HEI has had a go would be an inspiration).
Best regards
