Beyond the lecture - creating active learning experiences
As higher education continues to evolve, many courses are embracing a mix of face-to-face and online learning experiences. This shift calls for a move away from traditional lecture-based teaching towards more interactive, student-centred approaches that emphasise active participation, collaboration, and deeper learning.
The Symposium will also be an excellent opportunity to hear about the research and/or innovative practices being undertaken across both institutions before our merger in 2026, and there will be ample time for networking, making connections and establishing future collaborations.聽聽Come to be inspired!
