Hugh Davis, Professor of Learning Technologies in the Web and Internet Science Research Group (WAIS) and Director of the Institute for Innovation, Learning and Development (ILIaD), will be giving an inaugural lecture, “Breaking the Mould: how technologies change the way we learn”, on Monday 3 November 2014. His lecture will form part of the ILIaD inaugural conference, which will take place on the same day.
Professor Davis’ talk will take an affectionate tour through the evolution of technology-enhanced learning from the perspective of a teacher, academic and lifelong learner, and will consider the questions: has technology changed the way we go about learning and what we actually need to learn? Finally the talk will address the question of what 21st century higher education might look like.
The lecture will take place on Monday 3 November 2014, 18.15-19.30 in Building 46, Lecture Theatre A (46/3001), with teas and coffees served from 17.30 in the Seminar Room (46/5081).
All are welcome, but please register beforehand via Eventbrite. More information can be found on the University website.
