10.00-11.00 – Online Video: How It Changes and Enhances the Way We Learn!
Video resources are becoming fully integrated in the learning space and a matter of choice for the student. What opportunities could we find to integrate these resources into our learning spaces?
Teaching and learning is changing. What could these changes and innovation mean to teachers? What could these changes mean to what we call ‘the classroom’?
14.00-15.00 – Teaching and Learning with Lynda.com
All members of the University have free access to a wealth of amazing video content through the Lynda.com library. Extensive use is being made across the organisation – but are we missing opportunities to integrate the library into our course and subject matter expertise?
