Plenary session: Taking technology-enhanced learning forward

This participative session will draw upon the experiences of the TESEP project in providing the opportunity to explore and discuss how technology-enhanced teaching and learning can be embedded within our institutions in a genuinely transformative way.  The session will be preceded by an initial online activity that will help inform what will be covered on the day, with possible topics likely to include learner-centred staff development, pedagogical principles, embracing emerging technologies, ensuring institutional commitment, FE-HE collaboration, and evaluation…all depending upon what you’re most interested in!
