This year’s Learning and Teaching Forum saw no less than fifty paper presentations, a collection of posters and an enlightening keynote from DVC Shirley Alexander. As usual, the forum was an opportunity to hear tips, advice and success stories from a diverse range of innovators from the UTS learning and teaching community, some of which were captured in the twitter conversation under our hashtag for the day. The forum concluded with an announcement of this year’s Learning and Teaching awards and citations. From the Futures and LX.lab team, we’d like to congratulate all the winners who have been recognised for their work this year. Take a look at the list of winners here.
