Abstract
Enquiry-based learning describes a method of teaching and learning based on self-directed enquiry by the student, it has the potential to be applied to a variety of courses and programs. In this upcoming seminar, Ms. Jody Chu will be sharing her experience and insights gained from University of Queensland, with a particular focus on the application of enquiry-based learning as part of a curriculum revamp. Furthermore, Jody will discuss the importance of considering a suitable balance between in-person and e-learning under the umbrella of enquiry-based learning. By incorporating UQ’s expertise and understanding the challenges during their execution of enquiry-based learning during curriculum revamp, this seminar offers an opportunity for discussion of how self-directed learning can be encouraged and facilitated in our curriculum for higher education.
