Title : Immersive learning: 4-week block teaching.
Speaker: Rebecca Wilde (WMG)
Abstract:
Immersive learning has recently gained attention within the higher education sector. Current publications reflect heavily around the benefits gained from block teaching. A significant caveat within the existing body of literature is around how 4-week block teaching and immersive learning is operationalised in terms of curriculum design; and how this is cascaded to a course and module level. The focus of the session will be upon WMG’s experience of moving from a one-week block to a four-week block teaching model.
