We are pleased to announce the launch of that WIHEA/IATL Interdisciplinary Staff Hub that features case studies on interdisciplinary teaching and learning from across the University. The project team, consisting of Professor Cathy Hale (WMS), Jo Wale (IATL) and students Jenna Nilson (Education Studies), Sujaya Shrestha (Physics) and Bilal Arif (WMG), would like to thank all of the case study contributors and WIHEA and IATL for supporting the creating of this new resource that is located on IATL's Sharing Practice pages. https://warwick.ac.uk/fac/cross_fac/iatl/sharingpractice/staffhub

'Shakespeare, Ecology, and Adaptation: A Practical Guide' was co-authored with Dr Alys Daroy, whom Paul met through the Warwick-Monash Alliance. It will be published by Bloomsbury on 9th January 2025.

We are pleased to announce that Prof Elena Riva has published a new paper on the "ABCs of Mental Health at the University" (ABC-uni), a multi-level intervention designed to promote mental well-being across university settings. This research, the result of an ongoing collaboration with the University of Copenhagen, highlights IATL's continued innovation in higher education, particularly in the area of student wellbeing and mental health support.

Prof Elena Riva has recently been awarded an Enhancing Research Culture Funding (ECRF) grant of £35,508 by the National Centre for Research Culture, as well as a €400,000 Erasmus+ grant from the European Commission in collaboration with three other institutions across Europe. Both projects will focus on better understanding and increasing wellbeing literacy for diverse communities in higher education, as well as exploring healthy digital teaching and learning, demonstrating IATL’s commitment to being at the forefront of research-led education innovation.

The Institute for Advanced Teaching and Learning (IATL) is pleased to announce a special call for new interdisciplinary module proposals beginning in the academic year 2025 -26.

IATL aims to provide sector-leading interdisciplinary learning experiences for students across our University. As such, we are always looking to expand and innovate through exciting new modules. We are currently seeking module proposals which can offer a 'radical' interdisciplinary learning experience to students at UG and PGT level on themes that can facilitate interdisciplinary learning experiences in which all students across our University could thrive equally, regardless of disciplinary background.

For further information and to submit an expression of intent please see our webpage. 

Contact IATL Director of Studies, Heather Meyer Heather.Meyer@warwick.ac.uk for any questions related to this call.

Expressions of intent to be received by Friday 26th July 2024.
