Curriculum Symposium 2021: Post-pandemic curriculum

The post-pandemic curriculum - what will ‘normal’ look like? Will the sector coalesce around a limited set of curriculum design and delivery philosophies with shared principles of application, or is now the time for divergent sector practice? We particular welcome submissions from presenters with insights into the following themes:

• Delivery modes: wholly online, hybrid, back to campus… or something else?
• Digital pedagogy, the beating heart of the modern curriculum or a fad?
• ‘Beyond the clock’; communities of leaners outside scheduled hours.
• Other post pandemic paradigm shifts relating to curriculum

If you have something to share, or simply want to learn more about evidence informed practice then, this symposium by way of a keynote session, participant-led workshops and short presentations will offer insights how colleagues across the sector are reshaping their curricula as they prepare for post-pandemic education.
