Dear Colleagues
Peter Knight, an outstanding scholar and a friend and guide to many in
the assessment, learning and teaching community died earlier this year.
Please find below a programme for the Peter Knight memorial seminar we
are holding at Leeds Met on 17th October. As you may remember, we want
to celebrate Peter's achievements and talk about the ways in which
working with Peter has impacted on our own practice, as well as looking
to future developments of his legacy. The seminar is free, although we
will ask you to buy your own lunch in the cafeteria at Headingley
stadium. If you would like to reserve a place, please contact
[log in to unmask], advising us of any special mobility or other
needs.
Best wishes
Sally
