We are pleased to announce that the ‘Future Facing Learning’ Learning and Teaching Enhancement Conference will take place on campus on Tuesday 3rd July 2018.
Future Facing Learning is a unique pedagogic approach developed at Teesside University, and is designed to equip students with the knowledge, skills and tools to thrive in a complex and uncertain world.
