Abstract: Use of a virtual learning environment (VLE) to enhance the teaching and learning experiences of two groups of students in higher education is the focus of this paper. Through a comparative approach of strategies used, consideration is given to pedagogic implications of the current university policy in relation to e-learning and how it contributes to develop effectiveness in using technology to deepen student's experiences and encourage a deep approach to learning. The outcome of this comparison is the understanding that 'one size' of approach to the use of the VLE will not fit the needs of all the students.
