Session aims 

  • To offer a structure to help cohere thinking around what sorts of teaching, learning and assessment ‘blends’ colleagues might employ as we continue to navigate our way through disrupted times · 
  • To provide a forum to discuss some principles, controversies and issues related to ‘blended by design’ thinking · 
  • On the basis that ‘there’s never a good time’ and ‘we’re always too busy’: To offer an opportunity to pause and reflect on teaching, learning and assessment experiences and apply ideas to each person’s specific context and discipline
