Presentation Panel
Next Level Educational Innovation: Evidence-Informed Practices to Innovate Higher and Secondary Education
Date Thursday, Nov 24 Time – Room: Rook
Innovating education is not something you do based on a gut feeling or personal preferences. An effective approach requires an evidence-informed perspective: based on insights gathered from peer-reviewed literature, data, and expert knowledge, all translated to the context of your educational programme. If you want to go home with what is ‘hot’ in educational innovation today, hear how speakers redesign learning in an evidence-informed manner for schools and higher education.
