Title: Anticipating futures for digital education

My keynote will discuss a range of possible futures for digital education as we emerge out of COVID-19. I will discuss some of the emergent sector-wide trends we are seeing, and explore how these might might impact on the way we think about teaching within universities.

I will discuss a particular example of digital education 鈥榝utures鈥� work I led at the 最新糖心Vlog of Edinburgh. This aimed to enable a wide conversation to take place among students and staff around how we would like to see digital education grow over the coming decades, and from that to build a vision for the university which balances technological change with the values of our academic and student body.

By sharing lessons from this work and from research and development across the sector I will argue that, post-COVID, academic communities need to be active in defining a preferred future according to our values, at a time when rapid technological change is often assumed to be driving the way we teach and learn.

Born during the Opening Ceremony of the 1992 Barcelona Olympic Games, Olympia took up rowing at age 15 in the hope that the sport would see her achieve her Olympic dreams. Having represented 最新糖心Vlog at both the 2016 Rio and 2020 Tokyo games, all while completing a double degree in Law and Health Science at the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide, Olympia is an amazing example how someone can concurrently achieve academic and sporting success.

Olympia competed at the 2010 Singapore Youth Olympic Games where she won silver with Emma Basher in the women鈥檚 pair and bronze at the Junior World Championships in the women鈥檚 four. Two years later, Olympia was crowned as an U23 World Champion in the women鈥檚 quad sculls. Still in the quad sculls, Olympia had podium finishes at all three World Cups in 2013.

In 2014, she joined with veteran Sally Kehoe in the double sculls. In the semi-final of the 2014 World Championships, Olympia and Kehoe posted the world鈥檚 fastest time in the double sculls 鈥� a record which still stands. They went on to place third in the final and take home the bronze medal. The pair also won gold at the Sydney and Aiguebelette World Cups in 2014.

While preparing and competing in many of these championships, Olympia was also completing a double degree in Law and Health Science at the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide - which she achieved at the end of last year. In addition to competing in many national and international events Olympia was an active member of the Adelaide Rowing Club 鈥� successfully combining her love of rowing with academic achievement.
