Event details

Description

A practical hands-on session using both 'old and new' teaching and learning techniques. Ones that can help make a difference when you're trying to encourage participation in the classroom. In this session you have the opportunity to choose from a ‘menu’ of approaches, techniques and ideas as well as those shared by colleagues. You decide for yourself what works for you and your students (or not!) and then give it a go ‘diving’ straight in using these lo-tech approaches. The event is designed to enable you to add quick strategies to your teaching ‘toolkit’ and to select those that will make a difference on the days when you want to change delivery or apply a different technique. A great opportunity to learn from peers and to be involved in a community of shared practices.
