Last year brought 60 participants from across the Northwest together to share practice, research and innovation across higher and further education.  Feedback celebrated networking and learning across diverse areas of Education.
This year, the conference will bring together practitioner-researchers once again.  The conference seeks to embrace ALL education practitioners in a growing community of practitioner-researchers.  Participants will share in colleagues’ practice through posters from higher, further, adult and compulsory education institutions in UCLan and the Northwest.
Themes:
·         Learner experience and engagement

  • Collaborative and practice-based learning
  • Effective learning  environments
  • Innovations and Impact
Keynote:

The conference uses posters and short accompanying presentations in order to maximising the sharing and dissemination of research and practice across sectors and the practitioner community.  We encourage presenters to make posters interactive and to promote discussions examining the potential contribution and impact of their work for the sector, and also to evaluate the contribution of applied research to the enhancement of education.
