Human Teaching Book event

Tue, 09 Nov 2021 16:17:28 GMT

WIHEA and ADC are hosting an online Human Teaching Book - akin to a Human Library but with a teaching focus.

'Human books' will share their experiences of introducing various ideas into their teaching practice. They will meet 'readers' in virtual rooms and be able to explain a little more about what they do. This is a great opportunity to learn something new and meet others with similar interests to build communities of practice across the institution. Anyone interested in being a 'human teaching book' and sharing their experience should contact Dr Jane Bryan. No prep is required to be a book.
