DTS advice for students studying in China and staff based in China  This page provides colleagues with specific considerations when delivering teaching and learning to students in China, whether at a partner institution such as BIT or NUIST, or students who would be studying at Reading but are not currently able to return to the UK. One key message is that, wherever possible, students should be advised to use a wired, stable, high speed internet connection. However, it is important to recognise this is not available to all students in China, particularly those studying off-campus. Therefore, it is advised to provide asynchronous delivery where possible. Delivering teaching and learning Access to Blackboard and the students’ experience is dependent on their computer set up, speed of their internet connection and location. Due to these local variables user experience may vary.   Technical considerations
