The theme of this year's CELT Symposium #CELT18 is Design for Learning. Together we will explore the design and use of Teaching and Learning Spaces in Higher Education, particularly those that facilitate active learning, collaboration, and student engagement. With a range of international keynote speakers, workshops, and discussion sessions, we plan to explore everything from state-of-the-art learning spaces to inspiring examples of 'hacking the space', libraries to learning commons, and physical to online, hybrid, and open environments.  

Sign up now to book your place early! More details will be published shortly. 

If you have been involved in designing or redesigning teaching and learning spaces, or if you've managed to come up with ways of subverting the traditional learning environments you use to facilitate more active engagement -- then we'd love to hear from you. You can do this via a presentation or poster, or just by joining in the discussions. Come and share your ideas and experiences!

If you would like to offer a short presentation, a poster, or offer a workshop session at the Symposium, please complete this brief form by May 4th and we will get back to you after we review all of the submissions.

Our keynote speakers include:

Donna Lanclos - anthropologist, ethnographer, higher education policy advisor @DonnaLanclos

Alastair Blyth - architect, learning space designer, senior lecturer, Univ. of Westminster @AlastairBlyth

Lorna Campbell - open education advisor, OER service manager, Univ. of Edinburgh @LornaMCampbell
