Safeguarding Education: an adventurous quest for innovative and future proof teaching methods
Join us on June 5 for the 10th LTA Education Conference from 1-5 PM. We'll fuel you with new energy and ideas for future-proofing your teaching. Together, we'll zoom in on INSPIRATION, EFFECTIVE EFFICIENCY and RADICAL CHANGES.
- Inspiration -- Learn from other teachers and colleagues. This conference is designed to energize you with new ideas and fuel your teaching for the times to come.
- Effective efficiency -- In times of budget cuts, we need to optimize the efficiency of high quality education. How can you handle large reviewing tasks? Can AI assist you? And how will a limited number of teachers handle large groups of students?
- Radical changes -- Difficult times often require radical changes. From reconsidering fundamentals such as grading, to new and engaging modes of education; we'll take you along in an exploration of educational innovation.
What to expect? A very warm welcome, a tasty vegetarian lunch, a quiz, time to connect with colleagues and more! In her keynote speech, prof. dr. Sybille Lammes will introduce playful tools for radical changes in our teaching methods. Her keynote will be equally original and divided in two. In part one, it will kick us off with a number of provocations to consider. At the end of the day, it will unite us in an exploration of playful teaching methods and their applications. Well... did we tickle your curiosity yet?
