Director’sWelcome

I invite you to the annual Bond University Learning and Teaching Forum for 2014 hosted by Bond University Office of Learning and Teaching (OLT).

There is a wealth of knowledge and experience captured in this forum that highlights the exemplary work of our academic staff and OLT team who are passionate about transforming learning and enhancing student outcomes. The forum offers an opportunity for the exchange of good practice across the University, as well as a chance to reflect more broadly on teaching and learning strategies, explore new approaches and ideas, and share experiences.

Learn from your peers, hear stories of experience in implementing new teaching strategies, share ideas on teaching innovation and technology and learn more about creative approaches to blended learning, coursework assessment and student feedback. Sign up for as many sessions as you like – enjoy refreshments and lunch throughout the day, and the opportunity to network and share experiences with colleagues and academic staff! *Certificates of participation available for attendees as well as a small gift.

I encourage you to participate in this wonderful opportunity for collegial exchange, recognition of excellence in teaching and learning practice, and sharing knowledge on research and emerging pedagogies in learning and teaching.
