Online (Microsoft Teams)

The pandemic has forced us all explore the opportunities and challenges of online delivery, teaching and learning, generating a great deal of interest in sharing experiences about what works and what hasn’t gone so well. To support that process NERUPI is hosting another half-day session for members looking at two examples of online teaching in very different subjects but with the shared aim of encouraging active engagement in the learning process. Confirmed Speakers: Anne-Catherine Mechler, University of Bath; Dr Emma Davies, University of East London.
