Dear Colleague,
You are warmly invited to our forthcoming event on the theme of 'Making the
most of Fieldwork'.
Event: Making the most of Fieldwork. This event will be held at Liverpool
John Moores University Thursday 24th June 2004.
Event outline: Fieldwork is expensive in terms of time and resources and as
such is often targeted for financial cutbacks. This one day meeting will
highlight the benefits educational and otherwise, of providing fieldwork
within degree modules and programmes. More specifically the day will involve
an examination of the place of fieldwork in bioscience curricula, from staff
and student perspectives and a more general consideration of its contribution
to the teaching of disciplines such as ecology, agricultural sciences,
environmental and marine biology. This will be followed by examples of
developments in fieldwork teaching, focussing on more practical issues and
exploring ways of maximising the outcomes from fieldwork.
The programme and details of how to register (free) can be found at:

I hope that you may be able to join us.
Kind regards,
Jackie
