There will be space and opportunity for engaging with potential futures of technology-enhanced learning as well as interrogating what familiar concepts such as ‘interdisciplinarity’ and ‘research-based teaching’ really mean in practice. In an exciting collaboration, Martin Conreen, who lectures in Goldsmiths' Design Department, and Mark Miodownik, Professor of Materials and Society at University College and Royal Institute Christmas Lecturer, will be giving the keynote. Other key speakers include education campaigner and journalist Melissa Benn, Glasgow School of Arts education leader Professor Linda Drew, Goldsmiths cultural scholar Professor John Hutnyk, audio learning innovator Andrew Middleton and Kings College neuroscientist and Wellcome adviser Richard Wingate. ~~~~ Programme and more information at http://www.gold.ac.uk/gleu/futuretense/ Register at http://www.futuretense.eventbrite.com _______________________________ See http://www.gold.ac.uk/gleu/workshopsandevents/ for upcoming GLEU workshops and events. _______________________________ Dr Mira Vogel Academic Developer (Technology-Enhanced Learning) Learning Enhancement Unit Rm 306 Warmington Tower Goldsmiths, University of London Lewisham Way New Cross London SE14 6NW +44 (0)20 7919 (x)7298 [log in to unmask] http://www.gold.ac.uk/gleu http://goldsmithsleu.wordpress.com http://delicious.com/GoldsmithsLEU http://www.zotero.org/groups/goldsmiths_learning_enhancement_unit Twitter: @goldsmithsleu
