We are making good progress with the work to develop an ethical framework for professional pratice in Learning Technology.
Our working group now has 60+ members including learners and representation from industry and continues to be led by ALT's Trustees Bella Abrams, Sharon Flynn and Natalie Lafferty.
ALT is preparing a response to the Digital teaching and learning during the coronavirus pandemic: Call for evidence. This call for evidence is seeking a wide breadth of sector input and experience to understand the challenges faced, and lessons learned from remote teaching and learning delivery since the start of the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic in March 2020.
The call for evidence runs from 3 September 2020 to 14 October 2020.
It is with the deepest of sadness that the ALT community learned of the untimely passing of Emeritus Professor Mark Stiles.
Mark was an early pioneer of learning technologies in the Vocational, Further and Higher Education sectors, indeed when appointed Professor of ‘e Learning’ by Staffordshire University he was one of the very first to carry such a title. He was a strong advocate for the potential technology for good and to improve learning and life chances for all.
