The seventh UAL Learning and Teaching Day will take place at London College of Fashion on Wednesday 16th January 2013, a designated non-teaching day.

This year’s theme is ‘Accessible Learning, Accessible Assessment’. We want to explore how potential barriers to learning can be overcome through creative and collaborative curriculum design including assessment design, which deliberately addresses issues of access and openness. This may relate to disability, but could also include any approach which has enabled all students to participate fully by addressing practices which otherwise marginalise any student on the basis of their background, practices, beliefs, or ability in an area unrelated to achievement in the discipline.

We are delighted to announce that Sally Brown, an internationally recognized expert on assessment, will be our keynote speaker on the day.
