The Digital Classroom Project

Colleagues are invited to attend the Learning and Teaching Network session taking place on Monday 21 May 2018, 13.15-14.30 in the UELT Seminar Room, Canterbury.

The two digital classrooms (TS5 and TS6) in the Templeman Library are seminar rooms devised with special furniture and technology to support group work and active learning.

These rooms were piloted in the academic year 2017-18 by 16 academics across a number of Schools and disciplines.

In preparation for the upcoming academic year, the session aims to raise awareness of the rooms and to share best practice through the experiences of some of the academics who taught there: Zita Stone (KBS), Victoria Mason (SPS) and Caleb Turner (School of Arts).  We will also present the preliminary findings of a UELT research project aiming to capture how students and staff perceived and used the rooms and their suitability for different learning and teaching styles.

There will be time for questions and discussion. The session will include a visit to the rooms.

The session is open to all staff, particularly those interested in teaching in the digital classrooms in the academic year 2018-2019.
