At a time when the future employability of our students is a priority this session aims to demonstrate how employability skills such as teamwork creativity leadership and entrepreneurship can be embedded within a coursework assignment.
In addition this session will address the innovative use of digital technology in particular social media in education. With an ever-growing proportion of our students having spent their formative years surrounded by new digital advancements higher education needs to adapt teaching approaches to their preferred learning mediums. The session will share how social media has been used by students to teach others about public health topics and how they have learned from each other.
The presenters will explore with delegates how this innovative learning and teaching approach can be adapted to a wide variety of subject disciplines within STEM.
