There was a time on the internet when neither YouTube nor Facebook existed. 2003 was the era of MSN messenger chats and Bebo top-16s. Mobile phones were used to play Snake II, send SMS messages at 10p a pop and download silly ringtones.

At the end of a quiet residential street in the Charing Cross neighbourhood sits an iconic Glasgow landmark: the Arlington Baths. When it opened in 1871, it was the city’s first baths club, and over the decades, many volunteers have helped document its history. Today, the A-listed building is registered as a non-profit Community Amateur Sports Club, with 1,400 members who make use of its sky-lit pool equipped with Victorian features like a trapeze and flying rings, Turkish suite and sauna.

Over the past two years, I have been looking at the potential to apply more transformative approaches using digital technology to the assessment of apprenticeships.
