The first Kelloggiality will focus on: Distance learning and the university experience
Speakers: Prof Jeremy Knox and Lara Karassellos

This first roundtable explores the opportunities for learning and collegiality opened up by blended, digital and distance teaching. It brings together two speakers: Jeremy Knox is a Kellogg Fellow and Professor of Digital Education. He was involved in writing the Edinburgh Manifesto for Teaching Online. Its principles include ‘Online can be the privileged mode’, ‘Distance is a positive principle, not a deficit’ and ‘Place is differently, not less, important online’. Lara Karassellos is a DPhil student researching epistemological access, inclusivity, and social justice in blended learning environments in South African higher education.

Refreshments will be served at 17:00.
