The challenge…
Spring 2008:Explore new ways of learning & teaching with your students.
Join the mobile technology initiative. Could you use free
laptops for your students?
Wow! How? With whom? Ah, Level 3 fieldwork course!!
Class trips / reading / exhibition reviews…
Autumn 2008:Perhaps you could
incorporate something from the new student email
system?
We want them to be active: to reflect on
and share their fieldwork experiences with each other and us
in an ongoing log…
Yes, please!
Perhaps...?
