Events · Education Espresso

Academic subjects are what students come to university to study. But graduate attributes such as citizenship, global outlook, or entrepreneurship – and graduate outcomes of persistence, completion and employability – require the development of the whole person. Traditionally the academic curriculum has focused on mastery of knowledge and encouraged students to engage with a wider experience at their discretion – but is that still enough?

In this Education Espresso event we explore approaches to curriculum that seek to engage the whole person and ask how to make that aspiration a reality in learning and teaching.
