Universities are dedicated to providing the best possible student experience,
characterised by high levels of success, retention and satisfaction on which
reputation and recruitment are dependent in the 21st Century HE sector.
This conference will focus on the use of technologies in teaching to support
and challenge learners, to bring efficiency and added value to assessment and
feedback, to impact on employability and to support research activities that
face towards the curriculum. Creative and inclusive deployment of
technologies to add value to student support and guidance and
communications are an additional focus of interest.
