Seminars and Events
A series of regular Teaching and Learning sessions runs throughout the year.
These sessions are currently being delivered via Zoom meetings, where there is an alternating pattern between sessions that focus on teaching in general, and sessions that have a more specific learning technology focus. We welcome and invite staff to attend and present in these informal and collegial events to share, debate, and reflect on what they are doing to support student learning.
There are also two annual Business School events: the Teaching Forum in the first semester, with its wide-ranging focus on innovations and best practice in teaching and learning, and Learn Do Share in the second semester, with its more specific focus on the use of technology to support teaching and learning.
