Public Lecture Series

Throughout the year the School of Education hosts a series of public lectures on topics of interest in the field of education.  These cover a range of areas, including cognitive processes and instructional design, technology-enabled learning and teaching, language and literacy education (including TESOL), gifted education, special education, higher education, educational leadership, assessment and evaluation, and policy and politics in education.

The series seeks to stimulate debate amongst teachers, professionals, the University and wider communities. They are free to attend for teachers, academics and students from all universities and all other interested participants.

Lectures are held on Wednesday's 4.30pm- 5.30 pm in Room 119 of the John Goodsell Building, UNSW.  Light refreshments are provided.
