The Institute of Education, London University, invites you to:
An international conference Learning Together: Reshaping higher education
in a global age - 22 - 24 July 2007.
This international conference is for students, teachers, researchers and
administrators concerned with the urgent and compelling challenges of
learning and teaching in higher education in a global age, marred by
inequalities, but rich in opportunities for dialogue. Through an innovative
combination of the presentation of research with workshops on curriculum,
the student experience and the challenge of higher education pedagogies,
the conference will be a significant contribution to how we reshape higher
education.www.ioe.ac.uk/efps/conference/learningtogether
The Institute of Education, London University, also invites teachers
concerned with global education to participate in its long-standing
international short training course about e-learning,
Online Education & Training,
run globally with regional groups. Our "students" - all professionals and
trainers - normally include not only teachers but related staff that may be
part of e-learning design teams, e.g. technical specialists or librarians.
Thus, participants come from a range of different disciplines and
educational backgrounds and usually enjoy the unusual opportunity to share
both what they have in common and where they differ. You'll find it a
forum for rich structured collaborative learning with UK and world-wide
educators.
As with much good modern teaching, we focus very much on group
collaborative learning, both in our method of running the course and in the
topics we discuss. There is also a range of special options to cater for
specialist interests. These are expected to include
online discourse and moderating
computer-based assessment
mobile technologies
Real-time teaching with CHAT or video-conferencing and whiteboards
blogging and podcasting
The next start is 13 May 2007. We suggest you register as soon as
possible.
The course carries 30 UK credits towards either a masters or a diploma and
can be taken by 10 weeks distance study online.
The fee is £Stg 499, which can be paid by bank transfer, credit card or
instalments.
