• The two case studies demonstrates the sustainability of the two approaches economically, technologically and pedagogically. They are: First, examines the Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) strategy where accounting students use their own smartphones, laptops or tablets as an alternative to 'clickers' to respond to questions in lectures. The BYOD strategy had proved highly successful as the technology and students familiarisation with it matured over time. Second, involves student-generated multimedia content where Information Technology (IT) students create video podcasts of interviews with IT professionals as part of an assignment to enable students to learn more about careers in their future profession and to contribute to an ongoing resource library of career vodcasts. Both the BYOD and student-generated multimedia approaches fit well with widely accepted learner-centred pedagogies. With the success of the IT Careers Vodcast Project, some further measures were introduced to ensure sustainability and scalability with the larger intake of students at the beginning of the year.
