EDDG Meeting:Wednesday 16th September, 12.15-1.15 pm

Our first meeting of EDDG will be on Wednesday 16th September, 12.15-1.15 pm in training suite 3 in the Enterprise Centre.

Susan Regnart has very kindly agreed to facilitate this discussion (before she relaxes on her maternity leave) on: ‘The Socratic Tutorial that doesn’t end with Hemlock’. This follows on from Susan’s excellent presentation on the learning and teaching development day in June, and will give us an opportunity to discuss some of the issues around giving feedback, in more depth.

The discussion will focus on how to avoid conflicts with students and get them to develop responsibility for their own learning through the use of Socratic questioning .

Hope to see you there.
