**** EXTENDED DEADLINE!!! ****
We invite poster submissions for the Online Pedagogy conference at the University of Edinburgh to be held on the 24th and 25th May 2018.
The University of Edinburgh has played a leading role in online pedagogy with the development of online Masters programs, blended-learning environments, and free online courses (MOOCs). We recently received two major grants to create further free online courses: Philosophy, Science and Religion (Prof. Duncan Pritchard & Dr Mark Harris), and Intellectual Humility (Prof. Duncan Pritchard & Dr. Ian Church) - all available on Coursera. The goal of this conference is to gather a wide range of philosophers, psychologists, educational theorists, and policymakers to discuss and explore different aspects of online teaching. And, to look to the future of innovative digital and online education.
We welcome submissions from researchers in all areas, both theoretical and practical, as well as those working in industry and policymaking.
Abstracts no longer than 300 words should be emailed to " Mog (dot) Stapleton (at) ed.ac.uk " by 3rd May 2018.
