***LTSN-GEES Residential Conference on Teaching & Research***
June 30th and July 1st 2003 at the Royal Court Hotel in Warwickshire.
This event will examine two main issues. Day One will focus on how to strengthen existing links between teaching and research in the GEES disciplines, whilst Day Two will focus on encouraging the development of discipline-based educational research. The conference will also provide a forum for discussing aspects of the Government's White Paper for HE, including the greater emphasis to be placed on the scholarship of teaching, 'Centres of Excellence' and the proposed establishment of a new Teaching Academy for HE. Keynote speakers include Professor Liz Beaty, Director of Learning and Teaching at the HEFCE, and Cliff Allan, the LTSN Programme Director.
Through active participation (discussions, posters, papers and good practice summaries), the conference will provide delegates with an excellent opportunity to help lead and stimulate change within their own departments and institutions with respect to the teaching-research relationship.
We hope therefore that you, and/or a colleague, will want to attend this important event on behalf of your department. As numbers are already buoyant and subsidised places are limited, we would encourage you to register NOW at: http://www.gees.ac.uk/mainconf/resconf.htm
Also, don't forget that you can trim in the gym or cool in the pool at the venue, to work off those calories gained during the conference BBQ!
We hope to see you at the Royal Court Hotel.
Kind Regards,
Steve Gaskin
