9:30 am - 4:00 pm - Zoom – further details provided upon registration
The 2021 UTS Learning and Teaching Forum is a cross-faculty, University-wide event for the UTS teaching and learning community. This year, the focus will be on enhancing the student experience by exploring the ways we create opportunities and support learning through ‘feedback’.
The forum aims to model effective feedback processes, allowing spaces for dialogue throughout concurrent sessions and the MS Teams site, bringing multiple perspectives from emerging research, academics and professional staff, students, and industry, as well as inviting you to plan how you might put your own learning to practice in your teaching or professional work. There will also be the opportunity to consider how feedback might be enhanced through current and emerging tools and technologies.
Program
We look forward to a robust and collegial forum with student participants, academic staff, and professional staff from across the University, to explore feedback with the aim of ‘making a difference’ (Mahoney, Boud & Dawson 2018).
To see what presentations will be available, take a look at the long program online.
