Further information:
Ron Barnett is Professor of Education at the Institute of Education, London University and his work on developing understandings of Higher Education will be well known to many in our network. His talk will focus on his current thinking around what it is to be a student and will come from a largely philosophical approach but will also include plenty of examples and quotations from his work with students. For more information about Ron and his work, please visit the Institute of Education website at http://ioewebserver.ioe.ac.uk/ioe/cms/get.asp?cid=4458&4458_0=5486 <http://ioewebserver.ioe.ac.uk/ioe/cms/get.asp?cid=4458&4458_0=5486>
The cost of the day: Just £60 per delegate/participant. Registration forms will be sent out in due course but let me know if you wish to make an early reservation. As usual, places have to be limited and early registration is advised.
Symposium Administration: We have a conference administrator, Johanna Keenan, who is dealing with all the conference arrangements and we are setting up an email account for the Symposium. More information about this and about the new Network website will follow soon.
Location: Bournemouth University is located in an area of outstanding natural beauty. To the west is the stunning World Heritage Jurassic coastline that attracts visitors from all over the world. To the east is the New Forest National Park, a unique area of historical, ecological and agricultural significance that traces its history back almost a thousand years to 1079 when William the Conqueror named the area as 'new hunting forest'. Bournemouth also boasts 12 kilometres of award winning beaches as well as a lively cosmopolitan town centre atmosphere.
