2020 has been a challenging and hectic year for all of us. The University made the enormous shift to emergency remote teaching, and then to hybrid education on campus. We've tried out new forms of teaching, learning, collaborating and have been exposed to new tools and ways for working. Overall it has been a big transformation.

Join us on January 28th to reflect on our experience and lessons learned in 2020 and look forward to 2021
In this digital seminar we will ask attendees to consider: What have we achieved in online & blended education, and where do we go from here? What can stay, what can improve and what should we stop doing in 2021?
The seminar will have a diverse selection of workshops relevant for anyone involved in education at Leiden University in 2020 and 2021, including lecturers, support staff, students and policy makers. You'll be able to choose from presentations on best practices and lessons learned, creative sessions on using tools and media in education, reflections on our way of working in education, hands-on workshops and more.
