Learning and Teaching Conference
Teachers, researchers and students at Uppsala University are invited to spend an intensive conference day sharing their knowledge and experience of teaching and educational development and to avail themselves of the immense aggregate knowledge within the University. The conference is intended to serve as a forum for enhanced cooperation across subject and discipline boundaries, to provide an opportunity for participants to enhance their own teaching qualifications and find new inspiration.
This year's conference will be held 13 November on the theme Examination, Assessment and Feedback in Practice: Current Issues, Opportunities and Challenges.
