• 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 

After attending this session you will:

• Make informed decisions about nature of the blend they will use when planning sessions, modules or even programmes
