The Education Support Unit will not be holding the Learning and Teaching exhibition this year as we are reviewing how we recognise and disseminate good practice in education.
The annual Learning and Teaching Exhibition took place on Tuesday 27 March, at the Social Sciences and Law Complex, Priory Road. Once again the exhibition was a success with visitors attending from all Faculties across the University.
Professor Nick Lieven discussed the University's commitment to discipline focused education that was underpinned by scholarship and sustainability i.e. our students should be prepared to address challenging and complex problems whilst understanding the impact of their actions on future generations. Education at Bristol should equip students with the confidence and skills to rise to the top and lead in their chosen careers. Examples of what could be considered the "best experience" were reviewed.
A series of short talks and exhibits were presented, offering visitors a chance to drop-in and find out about current issues and projects within the University of Bristol. Links have been added below to allow you to view or listen to recorded short talk presentations:
