SEMINARS

We host regular workshops and seminars where colleagues can trial creative teaching ideas or approaches, discuss teaching successes and failures, or present Scholarship of Learning and Teaching.

We are a supportive space and welcome informal discussions, half-baked ideas, or tentative approaches. All are welcome to attend our seminars.
 
Below you can see our upcoming and past seminars.
If you would like to present or discuss your ideas for a session, please drop us a line here.
