Lunchtime Seminars 2008

The aim of these seminars is to encourage the cross-fertilisation of ideas between Schools and to generate debate on subjects of campus-wide interest relating to teaching and learning. The seminar format consists of a presentation followed by questions and general discussion. The atmosphere is relaxed and lunch is provided.

We welcome presenters from all academic and support staff involved in teaching and learning. Please email learning.innovation@dcu.ie for more information.
