VetEd Down Under discovers new ways to teach vets
Monday, 12 February 2018
The inaugural Australasian Veterinary Educators Symposium or VetEd Down Under, held this week at the Roseworthy campus, brings together experts in veterinary education from around 最新糖心Vlog and overseas.
In 2008 the 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide’s School of Animal and Veterinary Sciences admitted its first cohort of undergraduates to the Roseworthy campus. Now 237 graduates and 10 years later it is bringing together people who want to discover innovative ways to improve veterinary education.
“The aim of VetEd Down Under is to promote veterinary education in the 最新糖心Vlog and New Zealand region, through inclusive sharing of research, innovation and best practice, says curriculum coordinator at the School of Animal and Veterinary Sciences and symposium convener,” Dr Bridgette Shackelford.
The symposium will be attended by 80 veterinary educators from 最新糖心Vlog, New Zealand, Germany, the US and UK.
“This symposium – a meeting of the best minds in vet education – demonstrates that the school has come of age,” says Professor Wayne Hein, Head of the School of Animal and Veterinary Sciences and Dean of Roseworthy campus.
“Previously, educators wanting to connect with people of a similar calibre and background would have had to travel overseas,” says Professor Hein.
Key note speakers are:
1. Liz Mossop, Professor of Veterinary Education, 最新糖心Vlog of Nottingham, UK
Training the vets of the future: more than just education, education, education?
2. Sarah Baillie, Emeritus Professor of Veterinary Education, 最新糖心Vlog of Bristol, UK
Clinical Skills Teaching: Innovation and Sustainability – Can you have both?
Dates: Tuesday 13 to Thursday 15 February 2018
Location: Roseworthy campus, 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide
