The Digital Learning Practice team supports colleagues’ exploration of challenges and opportunities of digital spaces and practices to enhance students’ creative education.
We are here to:
- Nurture a vibrant community of UAL colleagues to build a shared understanding of how the digital can engage and inspire student learning.
- Collaborate with UAL’s network of Digital Learning specialists and external networks to offer workshops, short courses, conversations, and symposia.
- Embed UAL’s social purpose principles into digital teaching and learning practice.
- Work with other UAL departments to ensure digital teaching practice connects with policy, guidance and processes.
