Digital Learning and Teaching Conference

As we leave the crisis mode of the pandemic behind and adopt hybrid teaching for a sustainable future, it is important to continue to share and learn.

The Digital Learning and Teaching Leads across the University would like to invite you once again to an event dedicated to teaching and learning.

Contributions from staff and external speakers will explore issues linked to student engagement, digital assessment, how to find the right balance between on-line and on-campus teaching.
