The learner population was characterized by complex, socio-economically disadvantaged family backgrounds and a high rate of learning disabilities. The study investigated the effects of a Mobile-Assisted Language Learning (MALL) intervention to support the development of basic EFL literacy skills by students who lacked solid foundational English skills. The intervention provided an interactive educational software application, The English Club™, on iPod Touch devices to scaffold learning and review of letter sounds and rules of English, integrate them into words and texts, and practice reading, writing and comprehension.

In 2012/13, 13,830 students were enrolled at the University of Sussex (12,850 on a full-time equivalent basis). While the majority of students were UK nationals, the student body was highly diverse with over 120 nationalities represented. 10,500 full-time equivalent students lived in the local area while they studied at the University. It is estimated that over 8,600 of these would have lived elsewhere if the University did not exist. Around three-quarters of students were engaged in undergraduate study, and across all levels of study 43 per cent of all students studied a social science, 35 per cent studied a science subject, and the remainder studied humanities. 80 per cent of first degree graduates surveyed six months after leaving the University of Sussex had secured work or were engaged in full-time study. The University as an employer... The University is a significant employment centre for the local area, and employed 2,200 people in 2012/13 (1,960 on a full-time equivalent basis).

    University of Sussex Library Annual Report 2000-2001 University of Sussex Library Falmer Brighton BN1 9QL UK Telephone: +44 (0)1273 678163 Fax: +44 (0)1273 678441 Email: [email protected] University of Sussex Library Annual Report 2000-2001 Introduction This has been a year of unprecedented change for the University of Sussex Library. Adrian Peasgood retired as Librarian at the end of September after 13 years in the post. Adrian, who had spent virtually his entire career in this Library (except for a brief spell in Fiji), was greatly respected by colleagues throughout the University for his total commitment to the University. He worked tirelessly to ensure that the Library provided the best possible service within the resources available to him. Most notably, Deborah Shorley The new Librarian in latter years he saw the Library extension project through to completion. Despite the many hitches inevitable in such a complex project, by the time he left the original Library building had its much needed extension – an admirable complement to Spence’s original magnificent design. The flood at Lewes I took up my post on 1 October. Ten days later the River Ouse burst its banks during exceptionally high rainfall and the Library store at Lewes was seriously flooded. The store (which housed approximately 40,000 items of lesser used material) was under water for several days and the salvage operation could not begin until over a week later. This catastrophe took us all by surprise. Careful disaster planning helped ensure that the most precious material was salvaged first. Subsequently everything else was packed on pallets and sent to cold storage while we decided what to do next.
