CASS Teaching and Learning Showcase 2023

CASS in collaboration with CLT hosted the 2023 Teaching and Learning Showcase on Thursday 29 June. The event celebrates the amazing work our staff have done within and outside of the classroom to engage students and enhance their learning. This year, we delve into the cutting-edge world of education, shining a spotlight on the challenges and opportunities presented by AI, creative assessment design, and non-traditional teaching methods.

Below is the full program for the 2023 CASS Teaching and Learning Day.
