As lecturer in learning and teaching responsible for the PGCTHE, I keep an eye out for new resources to help our staff teach effectively online. This includes externally-provided webinars, toolkits, publications and other resources. Because active learning is high on our university agenda, I’m particularly keen to share guidance for moving active learning online. Below I’ve listed items that came to my attention in the past week. In the interest of clarity, our policy is to show the titles and descriptions in the language of delivery.   

• 1/10/2020 Centre for Distance Education, Experiences in digital learning: Learning design for flexibility and contingency 
• 1/10/2020 “Educational Access, Inclusion, and Learning in a time of COVID-19, The role of Technology. The speakers will explore the transnational affordances and challenges the pandemic has prompted regarding the application of technologies.”
