IGNITE Digital Roundtables

Following the major success of the past series of IGNITE Digital Roundtables, we will hold the 5th session on ‘Design Thinking & Maker Culture: Sticky Learning for the 21st Century’. The digital roundtable session, which will be held on Thursday the 11th of June 2020 at 15:00 (CEST) via Zoom, aims to explore how we can leverage digital technologies and new methods of teaching to promote ‘sticky learning’ — learning that is retained well after it is taught.

In the 5th session, the speakers will cover subjects, such as the ethos of both Design Thinking and Maker Culture, digital storytelling, digitising material culture and Phygital Heritage for teaching and learning in the humanities, featuring the #IGNITE courses. The talks will also explore how humanities knowledge takes on and create solutions for global challenges while facilitating the digital transition of society.

The digital roundtable seeks to explore these themes within the wider areas of education within the digital humanities, cultural studies, and the creative and cultural industries, both as part traditional educational curricula as well as lifelong learning.

Past IGNITE Digital Roundtable Sessions


 

We are delighted to announce the IGNITE digital roundtables on ‘Design Thinking & Maker Culture: Sticky Learning for the 21st Century’. The digital roundtables, which will be held on Wednesday afternoons through April via Zoom, aim to explore how we can leverage digital technologies and new methods of teaching to promote ‘sticky learning’ — learning that is retained well after it is taught.

Our speakers will cover subjects, such as digital innovation in teaching and learning in the humanities, flipped classroom teaching, maker culture as new forms of meaning-making and knowledge creation, how to prepare humanities students for a new labour market, and how can humanities knowledge take on and create solutions for global challenges while facilitating the digital transition of society.

The digital roundtables seek to explore these themes within the wider areas of education within the digital humanities, cultural studies, and the creative and cultural industries, both as part traditional educational curricula as well as lifelong learning.
