SUMMARY:POSTPONED FROM 2020: Enhancing Student Learning Through Innovative Scholarship (Keele)
DESCRIPTION:This conference was postponed from 2020 due to the pandemic\, but is planned to run in 2021 at Keele with the same theme as previously intended. New dates are yet to be announced\, so I have nominally put it in the calendar at the start of July. \n \nTo raise the profile of teaching only academics in the research intensive climate\, it is vital to shine a spotlight on the innovative learning and teaching they undertake. The best way to achieve this is through the promotion of the innovative scholarship of learning and teaching being driven by this subset of the academic community. This fifth meeting of a national network for staff with a strong commitment to developing teaching and scholarship excellence is therefore a forum to share innovative scholarship across disciplinary boundaries and to develop a national voice for teaching focussed academics.

SUMMARY:Advance HE Teaching and Learning Conference 2021
DESCRIPTION:Teaching in the Spotlight: What is the Future for HE Curricula?\n\n\n\nDate: 6-8 July 2021 Venue: Virtual Who: All higher education professionals Book now \n\n\n\n  \nAdvance HE’s Teaching and Learning Conference 2021 will continue to position the spotlight firmly on teaching in a global context. With particular reference to this year\, the conference will explore where we go from here in terms of teaching and learning in HE\, and how will we deliver the curricula of the future. \n\n\n\nTeaching in higher education has never been under such scrutiny as during 2020 and this continues into the new academic year. Ongoing debates around teaching excellence\, fees\, value\, the student experience\, inclusion\, equality impact and more have been further scrutinised and added to by the global pandemic. \n\n\n\nSome of the consequences have been: \n\n\n\n\nA rapid move to fully virtual teaching in March 2020\, meaning as a result everyone having a view on the ‘new’ student experience\nthe value now for students compared to the ‘traditional’ HE model\nthe impact on physical elements of courses such as field work or laboratory sessions\nthe rapid change in assessment methods and engagement strategies\nhow the curriculum supports equality\, inclusion and diversity in a virtual world.\n\n\n\n\nSo what is the future for HE curricula? Has the urgency for digital learning caused a seismic shift in HE delivery that will change the future of the sector? Have inequalities in higher education been narrowed or have new ones emerged? Do we have a workforce with the skills required to deliver this new model of HE? Do the curricula we have deliver the skills and knowledge graduates need for the post-pandemic world? And where do we go from here as we move through the 2020-21 academic year and into 2021-22 and beyond? \n\n\n\nThe focus on enhancing all aspects of teaching and learning remains a critical issue for those seeking to provide an outstanding student experience at all levels of taught provision. Curricula are at the heart of excellent teaching and all aspects of this have changed as never before during 2020. \n\n\n\nJoin the conversation at #TLConf21

SUMMARY:European Association for Research on Learning and Instruction (EARLI) Online
DESCRIPTION:The 19th Biennial EARLI Conference will be hosted by the EARLI Executive Committee and will be fully online.  We encourage participants to present results and ideas on state-of-the-art research in learning and instruction\, specifically around the topic “Education and Citizenship: Learning and Instruction and the Shaping of Futures “. \n“Education and Citizenship: Learning and Instruction and the Shaping of Futures” \nDemocratic societies build on ideas of active citizens who participate in and contribute to social\, cultural and economic development. The UN Agenda 2030 specifies the goals involved in building sustainable and just societies able to successfully address the challenges we face in Anthropocene. Learning and instruction in its various settings play an increasingly important role in promoting the values\, skills and knowledge that will allow us to foster active citizens who are able to contribute to sustainable and peaceful co-existence. EARLI can help to advance our understanding of the role and impact of education by addressing the processes and outcomes of learning in broad and innovative ways. This includes attending to features such as the role of learning and instruction for the promotion of agency\, the development of collaborative skills\, the deepening of a sense of belonging in society and\, not least\, for the commitment to future learning among all citizens. \n\nThe joy and excitement of learning and of knowledge sharing and creation\, represent significant components of learning\, and they should be considered as important outcomes of learning along with our traditional competence measures. In this respect\, they need far more attention from researchers. The pandemic spreading during 2020 reminded us of the fact that the future is increasingly difficult to predict but it seems safe to say that learning and re-learning will continue a top prioirity regardless of the future. The EARLI community accepts the responsibility to show how learning and instruction are consequential for the intellectual\, social and cultural fabric of societies striving to shape their future on the road to sustainability.

SUMMARY:European Conference on Educational Research (hosted by Geneva\, Online)
DESCRIPTION:ECER 2021 – Online Conference\n\n\n\nFollowing an extensive series of conversations within EERA and with our conference partners in Geneva\, it has been decided to hold ECER 2021 as an online conference. While our preference would have been for an in-person ECER in the beautiful city of Geneva\, the uncertainty that still exists around the COVID-19 pandemic meant that this is just not possible. \nHowever\, we will be hosting an ECER in 2021 in the first week of September and we are looking forward to the opportunties offered by our move to an online environment. Together with our colleagues in the University of Geneva and in conjunction with KUONI – our technical partners – we are exploring a wide range of exciting and innovative presentation formats that will allow us to retain much of the spirit of ECERs past in this novel situation that we all now face. \nJoe O’Hara\,\nPresident of EERA \n6 November 2020

SUMMARY:British Educational Research Association (BERA) Online
DESCRIPTION:As you can imagine we have been giving a lot of thought to BERA Conference 2021 and what it might look like and how to deliver the most inclusive\, accessible and engaging event. To that end\, we have made the decision now to host it as an entirely online conference. We will miss the opportunity to gather in person but the ongoing uncertainty generated by Covid-19\, the likely restrictions on international travel and the desire to enable as many people as possible to present and attend means that we think our energies are best spent planning the very best digital experience we can offer. \nConference will still take place in the week of 13th September 2021 and while we are still exploring the best platforms and formats to us; we are committed to hosting an innovative and interactive event that will be both live and on demand and which will hopefully enable more people than ever to engage in the opportunities that BERA Conference traditionally offers. Our online events so far have seen significant numbers attend and reach beyond our traditional audiences and we hope to replicate that with the conference itself. \nSo please keep your diaries free that week and start planning to be part of the 2021 conference experience. Abstract submission will both open and close a little later than normal this year but we will be in touch when it opens this side of Christmas and we look forward to engaging with you all as part of the process. \nDr Mhairi Beaton\, BERA Conference and Events Chair\nNick Johnson\, BERA Chief Executive\nMarie Blythe\, BERA Events Manager

SUMMARY:Learning Analytics (for mere mortals)
DESCRIPTION:(From the SHED email list – SHED is the staff developers network in Scottish Higher Education) \nStudents generate a cacophony of institutional data – registrations\, VLE access\, grades\, quizzes\, ebook views\, video views\, forum contributions and so on. \nBut how do you turn the “noise of data” into songs and symphonies of meaning? And who is the audience? \nIn this month’s free Future Teacher session (Wednesday 26th January 2021 1pm GMT) we look at the topic of “Learning Analytics for mere mortals”. We’re focused not on the technology but on the teaching\, not on data per se but on the role of data in changing the learner experience by motivating\, supporting\, stretching\, challenging. \nAs always\, we promise (i) authentic practitioner input (ii) supporting resources (iii) acknowledgement of accessibility/inclusion (iv) lively text based discussion with a chance to hang around afterwards to talk in more detail. \nRegister here <https://xot.futureteacher.eu/play.php?template_id=4#la> and give us a bit of background about your learning analytics experience <https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScBBy-9vQl9C2XdU9BEnAG8IhQcBH7pBTUA4JGNAQJIY8RGYw/viewform> (very short questionnaire – 3 questions max). \nAlistair\, Lilian\, Ron\, Rosemarie\, Teresa

SUMMARY:EUA Webinar: Embedding DELT (digitally enhanced learning and teaching) into curriculum and assessment
DESCRIPTION:[from the web link] \nEUA is offering a webinar on Thursday\, 21 April\, 14.00-15.00 CEST\, to present the outcomes from the 2021 Thematic Peer Group (TPG) on Curriculum and Assessment. This TPG took place in the framework of the DIGI HE project\, and focused on how to embed digitally enhanced learning and teaching (DELT) into curriculum and assessment. In its final report\, the TPG also proposed a set of recommendations to higher education institutions. \nThe recent and rapid adoption of DELT was a new (and uncertain) approach for many staff and students. Many institutions have since returned to a face-to-face or blended learning approach in their teaching. But what have higher education institutions learned from the online experience? What challenges regarding curricula and assessment are still to be faced in the ‘new normal’ ahead\, and which are common across digital and face-to-face teaching? The TPG on Curriculum and Assessment addressed this theme through five key areas. These are: institutional strategies to embed DELT into curricula; supporting and empowering teachers in experimenting and innovating in digital education; embedding assessment as an integral part of curricula; developing assessment literacy for students and teachers; and an overarching area that underpins the others – reaching equity of opportunity across the board for both students and staff.

SUMMARY:CPD Webinar - Supporting student partnership in assessment with technology
DESCRIPTION:[From the website] \nThis webinar is part of our 2022 CPD webinar sessions. Participants will earn an ALT CPD Open Badge which can be used as evidence towards accreditation via one of the pathways in ALT’s CMALT framework.  \nIf you missed a previous CPD webinar\, recordings are available over on Youtube; 2021 Playlist\, 2022 playlist. \nPresenter:    Rob Lowney\, Fiona O’Riordan and Ruth Ní Bheoláin \nInvolving students as partners in the assessment process helps develop assessment literacy (Ní Bheoláin et al\, 2020)\, support student engagement (National Forum\, 2017)\, and recognises students’ agency and their being experts in their own learning (NStEP\, 2016). Moreover\, it helps support academic integrity (Egan\, 2018) and universal design for learning (CAST\, 2018). \nSince 2020\, an initiative at Dublin City University (DCU) has been piloting a number of partnership approaches to assessment in different modules. These approaches range from low-level (such as students choosing a topic for an assessment) to high-level (such as students co-creating grading criteria). A summary of potential approaches is available in this short guiding resource: https://bit.ly/sapia Evaluations of these pilots have shown greater student engagement and performance in the relevant modules. \nLearning technology is used extensively to support these approaches\, often in combination. In this CPD webinar\, the DCU experience of student partnership in assessment will be shared\, with a focus on the role of learning technology. It is hoped attendees will gain an understanding of this topic and be enabled and encouraged to try technology-supported learning student partnership in assessment in their own contexts.

We are delighted to have Greg visit with us now in person in St Andrews. \nYou can watch Greg’s HEIR keynote here: (starts at 4:00 with introduction.) \nhttps://st-andrews.cloud.panopto.eu/Panopto/Pages/Viewer.aspx?pid=1ea8a932-0e08-472e-97db-adec00b547eb&id=eb414a81-13fa-47c5-805b-ade900fe3350&advance=true \nThe day is divided in 2 main sections.  In the morning session\, Greg will set the scene with a short presentation. We will then have invited presentations from staff and students across campus already working on innovations and interventions around the theme of belonging\, to stimulate conversation. This session will allow for network building across campus\, and for Greg to provide feedback and suggestions for further development of these initiatives.  The morning will therefore be largely focused on initiatives at the campus-wide level.  \nIn the afternoon we will focus on what individual teaching staff and front-line service staff can do in our interactions with students to support and reinforce belonging in the classroom and in the Schools more generally. The afternoon session will be of interest to anyone involved in teaching with an aspiration to improve the student experience of belonging.   \nPlease register separately for morning and afternoon sessions.  You are welcome to attend either\, or both\, according to interest. \nSchedule \nMorning \n(Register here: https://events.st-andrews.ac.uk/events/making-st-andrews-a-place-to-belong/ ) \n9:30 – Coffee and chat in the Arts Theatre Foyer \n9:45 – Session start.

SUMMARY:Scottish Educational Research Association (SERA) Conference 2022
DESCRIPTION:[From the website] \nThe SERA Annual conference is an important event for the educational research community in Scotland. The three-day conference\, to be held at the Ayr campus of the University of the West of Scotland (UWS) invites researchers and practitioners working in Scottish and international research contexts to share their insights under the theme of Reconnecting educational research\, policy\, and practice.

How might education respond to the challenge of competition\, distribution\, and access to educational services supporting our communities? Is the gender divide in education increasing? How might education foster awareness that our lives depend on the natural environments and that ecology can only be achieved through equity? How might we learn to live peacefully with one another within the limits of the Earth supporting us? \nProfessional and Vocational Learning (including teacher education and higher education): What new challenges in workspaces and practices are impacting on professional and vocational learning? How is knowledge generated and shared in occupational and professional contexts and across professional boundaries? How might professional education and development be reconceptualised? How are inter-professional work practices shaping new demands for pedagogical response? What new possibilities could be explored around leadership “education”? \nPolicy and Education: How might policy at global\, national\, and local levels shape education and lifelong learning? How might educational actors (regardless of sector) respond to\, and inform policy directions? How might new partnerships enhance or inhibit educational initiatives and the mobilization of research? \nCurriculum: How might curriculum engage with a constantly changing and evolving world? To what extent might the curriculum support interdisciplinary learning and reflection on key themes of human development? What insights might be gleaned from different theoretical perspective on curriculum? How might educational practitioners engage with the process of curriculum reform? \nAssessment and Evaluation: In what ways might national testing/assessment evidence be used to improve educational attainment in the short term? What issues might arise from national and international testing/assessment regimes? \nDigital Learning: How might the infusion of new technologies impact learning experiences in/out of formal educational settings? What new spaces are emerging to enable more sustainable forms of pedagogy and learning? How might the open education movement support or inhibit inclusion/exclusion locally and globally? \nInnovative Research Methods: What challenges face educational researchers and how might new research methods innovate in response? What new questions need to be asked and examined? How might different theoretical perspectives and paradigms create openings for new questions\, new forms of research\, and offer critical insights? How might more innovative research methods contribute to supporting learning and change in challenging times and spaces? \n\n\n\n\n\n\nSERA Submission Dates\n\nCall for proposals opens Friday 25th March 2022.\nAll proposals to be sent to conference@gmail.com by Friday 6th May 2022.\nPeer review of abstracts will be completed by the end of June 2022.\nNotification of acceptance will be given on or before week beginning 11th July 2022.\n\nSERA Conference registration arrangements\nSERA Conference registration will open at the beginning of May and will be available at https://www.sera.ac.uk/conference/how-to-book/
