Beyond Content: How Scenario-Based Learning Delivers Employability in the Age of AI

Join us for the final session of our inaugural Teaching and Learning Symposium as we wrap up an inspiring week of collaboration and discovery, and are joined by Phil Gomm and Tony Reeves from Ding Learning.Higher education faces an uncomfortable truth. Despite investing heavily in quality programmes, employers consistently report that graduates can't apply what they know in the workplace. The technical knowledge is there, but something essential is missing. AI has made this worse. When excellent content is everywhere and instantly accessible, HE providers can no longer compete on content alone. So what's your unique value now?The answer is helping students use their knowledge in messy, real situations. This means moving from teaching facts to developing judgement—from information to application.Scenario-based learning does exactly this. Instead of studying content and hoping it transfers, students tackle realistic workplace challenges from day one. They develop judgement through practice, not memorisation.The power lies in fiction. Fictional scenarios create safe spaces where students can make mistakes, experiment with approaches, and learn from consequences without real-world damage. It's like a flight simulator for professional skills—authentic enough to matter, safe enough to fail.In this creative and interactive session, Tony Reeves and Phil Gomm from Ding Learning will be exploring the potential of scenario-based learning, and how this approach can differentiate your programmes while delivering employable graduates.Ding can help you improve quality, rethink your assessment for AI and increase the employability impact of your programmes. They are also very happy to talk through any learning-related issues you're facing - please <a href="https://cTYwl04.na1.hs-sales-engage.com/Ctc/GE+23284/cTYwl04/Jl24YGXpW7lCGcx6lZ3ltW6nFvGd39z-MtV199WJ88PSmLW6lFXKR7QCtkdW5frcdc6RVwyrW3GKvrr4HWJKcW7vMxsK7ZCWgLW5vxHCN5yfxmlN7Pp54TkcwBRW31X7Jp4nPq-7N8tDnr5z_2QHW6XzBnz4yZd2-W3H2cZn7cNPRBW7SfDcf98Mj3sW5_LQVC8YCvH5VV3Xhf7QWkQsW8m9K0-8FXnhhW6Yv1CK8DfLhHW46CMWz2bMpkbW5K76Yn1LD7-LVfhSSG7mCgp9Vr6Hd982nBQ0N3c2hlXzhL22W5Px0Zz4MDMpgW4gKk1K84w5jKW6bgpS110kp7pW665nvv8Tx3cXW1xfGyb7j-jDGW2-hLlF6l6RSHW4cGwyY511ZKqW5S9YXF5cjynfW2dVVGF283vKmW1P6zfX6bN4NSW8KJD1S5Xn_TJW7MZvsz6MC6vLW7D81R14l0X4tMjR2d_zvvXtW4D_w7Q4B_R1cV_-6FS6d94K5N6S2fNrtdwQwW5Hrtgw8-Nc5Df92wZ0d04" title="https://cTYwl04.na1.hs-sales-engage.com/Ctc/GE+23284/cTYwl04/Jl24YGXpW7lCGcx6lZ3ltW6nFvGd39z-MtV199WJ88PSmLW6lFXKR7QCtkdW5frcdc6RVwyrW3GKvrr4HWJKcW7vMxsK7ZCWgLW5vxHCN5yfxmlN7Pp54TkcwBRW31X7Jp4nPq-7N8tDnr5z_2QHW6XzBnz4yZd2-W3H2cZn7cNPRBW7SfDcf98Mj3sW5_LQVC8YCvH5VV3Xhf7QWkQsW8m9K0-8FXnhhW6Yv1CK8DfLhHW46CMWz2bMpkbW5K76Yn1LD7-LVfhSSG7mCgp9Vr6Hd982nBQ0N3c2hlXzhL22W5Px0Zz4MDMpgW4gKk1K84w5jKW6bgpS110kp7pW665nvv8Tx3cXW1xfGyb7j-jDGW2-hLlF6l6RSHW4cGwyY511ZKqW5S9YXF5cjynfW2dVVGF283vKmW1P6zfX6bN4NSW8KJD1S5Xn_TJW7MZvsz6MC6vLW7D81R14l0X4tMjR2d_zvvXtW4D_w7Q4B_R1cV_-6FS6d94K5N6S2fNrtdwQwW5Hrtgw8-Nc5Df92wZ0d04" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">book a free call</a> to chat with them at your convenience.Ding also runs a PGCert and MA in Creative Teaching and Learning Design validated by Arts University Bournemouth.
