USW holds regular Learning and Teaching conferences to celebrate and share the good practice in learning, teaching and assessment undertaken across the University group and its strategic partners.
After the success of the inaugural 2015 conference the event became annual and additional, specialist, conferences are also held at different points in the year for senior managers and for specific subject disciplines.
The new date for the learning and teaching conference is 14th – 16th July.
This
year’s conference is about forging networks in an increasingly diverse higher
education environment. We will explore the place of technology in its broadest
sense, from ‘low-tech’ to more complex scenarios, in enabling the University’s
2030 vision. We are particularly interested in hearing about examples and
lessons learnt that exemplify collaboration, inclusion and sustainability.
As we will not be able to run the conference in the usual format, we would like to use this as an opportunity to share and reflect on how everyone has enabled learning to take place in exceptional circumstances.
The theme remains the same, but we want to create a Festival of Learning where we can celebrate how we have all engaged with technology in ways we could never have imagined previously.
The conference will run over 3 days with keynotes, webinars and workshops available for you to join alongside some Faculty focused sessions. All sessions will be available online for you to take part in real time, or to watch at a time to suit you.
We hope you will want to tell us your stories and join in.
