Conference Themes
PEE24 main theme
Enhancing student experience and/or inclusivity of practical learning
During the PEE21 and PEE22 conferences, an emergent theme from many of the delegates was the mechanics for delivering practical teaching remotely during the COVID-19 restrictions. We would love to hear how practitioners have applied learning from this period to shape the future of their practice to embed practical skills effectively to enhance students experience.
There will be four sub-groups within the main theme:
- Integrating Practical Skills in the Engineering Education
Mapping of the skills
A cross-programme evaluation of student experience in labs
In-house design and build of practical education equipment
- Assessment and feedback of practical work
Measuring the effectiveness of the lab reports skills
