THE FUTURE IS HERE

Atlantic TU DigitalEd22 Conference ATU Galway City May 4-6 The ATU DigitalEd22 Conference took place through hybrid delivery and incorporated both virtual and on-site sessions for all ATU staff and partners, and the wider higher education sector in Ireland. Over 300 participants engaged with 40 sessions across the three days.

The DigitalEd22 conference was quite timely, as we emerged from COVID and remote teaching and learning. It demonstrated how we have digitally transformed, as we are now a new technological university. Over 40 digital transformation stories were presented across the three days and the sessions covered a wide variety of themes including: assessment transformation, academic integrity, students as partners, digital badges, ePortfolios for employability, online and flexible learning course design, student engagement, Universal Design for Learning (UDL), and technology enhanced learning tools.
