<p><strong>ALT’s longest established online conference is returning December 15-16 2020, for a special celebratory edition incorporating this year’s Learning Technologist of the Year Awards.</strong></p>
<p>The full two day programme will feature speakers from across sectors and bring together experts to discuss the most urgent questions facing institutions and individuals as they scale up the use of technology for learning, teaching and assessment. From creating a framework for the ethical use of Learning Technology to scaling up provision in an emergency and beyond, the conference will provide an opportunity to showcase excellence in EdTech practice and research.</p>
<p>Alongside the academic programme, the conference will offer a full social programme and networking opportunities including a special awards ceremony to close the conference.</p>
<p>Registration for the conference and applications for free scholarship places are now open. Find out more about <a href="https://altc.alt.ac.uk/online2020/scholarship-places/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">applying for a scholarship place</a>.</p>
<p>Conference tickets are £49 for ALT Members (£99 for non Members) and include pre-conference orientation & networking sessions, access to all live and asynchronous sessions, opt-in participant list for networking, jobs boards & directory and conference session recordings and resources.</p>
<p>Keep up to date with conference news URL and follow #altc on Twitter.</p>
<p>We are inviting ALT Members to be part of a webinar to scenario plan for the mid-to-long-term future of technology enhanced learning in HE. The outputs from this workshop will contribute to guidance and practical tools for university leadership as part of the <a data-saferedirecturl="https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.jisc.ac.uk/learning-and-teachin... href="https://www.jisc.ac.uk/learning-and-teaching-reimagined" rel="noopener" target="_blank">Learning & Teaching Reimagined Initiative</a>. </p>
<p>During this webinar, and together with other leaders in HE, you will explore a variety of future scenarios and the various implications of each. You'll try out new tools and exercises that you can use in your own organisation to put focus on student experience, teaching provision and skills, infrastructure and resources, and investment.</p>
<p>At this time of profound change, with a complex and uncertain future ahead of us, we need conversations that can help us to plan for stability. We hope you can join us. </p>
