This one day event will:

  • create a supportive and reflective environment where delegates have the opportunity to express their aspirations for HEI teaching
  • stretch and question the parameters surrounding what students in social policy departments can learn, and what can be taught
  • enable delegates to think critically through contemporary challenges associated with the teaching and learning experience

Speakers

Professor Mary Evans, Centennial Professor at the London School of Economics

Dr Shona Hunter, Sociology and Social Policy, University of Leeds

Dr Helen Lucey, Psychology, University of Bath

The speakers will cover a range of themes such as: social policy as a substantive area; the student 'learning experience'; the role of 'feedback'; and future constraints on creative freedoms in research and teaching practice.
