2019-20 Conference theme: 'Transforming Learning & Teaching'

Last year's theme allowed us to consider submissions on a broad range of aspects of learning and teaching, while retaining a focus on developments that drive forward the attainment and the experience of our students as our learning and teaching spaces become more flexible, our student expectations continue to evolve, and the World Changing Glasgow Transformation project on assessment and feedback progresses. 

We had five sub-themes:

  • Using Technology to Transform Learning and Teaching
  • Assessment and Feedback
  • Using Scholarship of Teaching & Learning (SoTL) to Transform Learning and Teaching
  • Inclusivity and Internationalisation
  • Active Learning

Waimed to showcase the most effective enhancements implemented across the University (or beyond) that address such issues: that transform learning and teaching. 

Sub-themes

1. Inclusivity and Internationalisation

2. Using Technology to Transform Learning and Teaching

3. Assessment and feedback

4. Active Learning

5. Using the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) to Transform Learning and Teaching

Day 2: Wed 1 April - Full Day (via Zoom)

Given the current situation, many of this year's accepted presenters have rightly chosen to prioritise the effective realignment of their teaching and assessment activities for an online environment at the moment.

This date therefore ran with a streamlined, single-track programme. The remainder of the accepted presentations will be recorded individually over the summer, and released as a bank of videos at a launch event in August.

Lightning Talks, Posters & Release of Recorded Presentations 

This event featured this year's lightning talks and posters.

It was also a chance to network with colleagues in themed breakout rooms. Staff were able to discuss issues around the upcoming semester, and the shift to remote and blended teaching.

The event was also be the launch of this year's presentation recording bank. Many of our scheduled presenters were unable to deliver their presentation at our main April event due to the time-pressures of the pivot to online exam provision. They have been recording their presentations over the summer instead.
