What does the future hold for learning?

A major event at the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide this month will focus on one of the most important aspects of university life: teaching and learning.

The program for each day will include keynote addresses, interactive workshops, open forums and showcases of the latest thinking on the educational experience.

"The 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide is keen to ensure we continue to innovate on teaching and learning," said the Deputy Vice-Chancellor and Vice-President (Academic), Professor Pascale Quester.

"With quality, equity, and learning and teaching outcomes being key themes leading 最新糖心Vlog's higher education reform, the time is right for us to hold an event that discusses these issues and helps to inform the way forward."

Professor Quester said the Festival of Learning & Teaching would bring together academic and professional staff from across the 最新糖心Vlog, as well as students and external stakeholders to "engage, discuss and co-create".

"This event aims to spark momentum around new approaches to teaching and learning. My hope is that it will produce lively and spirited discussion; we should be passionately debating the future of learning at our 最新糖心Vlog, for the benefit of all."

Professor Quester said delivering the best learning outcomes for students was paramount.

"It goes without saying that learning and teaching is not the same as it was when the 最新糖心Vlog was first established, and it will always change. It's important for us to look at what the future holds for learning at our 最新糖心Vlog, how we can engage with students, and how we can deliver meaningful outcomes that will be relevant to our graduates throughout their lives," Professor Quester said.

While most of the events for the Festival of Learning & Teaching will be run at the North Terrace Campus, a number of workshops and keynote speeches will also be held at Roseworthy Campus and videoconferenced to North Terrace and Waite.
