***APOLOGIES FOR CROSS-POSTS***
Dear colleagues
Places at this year’s HEA Annual Conference are now sold out but bookings have just opened to view a range of its sessions live online.
‘Powerful partnerships: Defining the learning experience’ at the University of Warwick on 304 July 2013 will explore the increasing use of partnerships to address the challenges presented by change.
Two keynote speakers and selected presentations taking place in the main auditorium at the Conference, 3-4 July at the University of Warwick, will be streamed live to online delegates.
Sir Michael Barber, Chief Education Adviser, Pearson, will talk about his recent publication: ‘An avalanche is coming: Higher education and the revolution ahead’ and the forces affecting higher education in the UK and internationally.
Steven Schwartz, Executive Director of the Australian Council for Humanities, Arts and Social Sciences (CHASS) will give the second keynote which will use real world examples to focus on the ingredients of successful partnerships.
There will also be the opportunity to hear directly from a live student panel about their perceptions of the issues raised.
Together the sessions distil the key issues that will be covered during the conference and encompass almost half a day of the full programme.
