About the Conference Our e-Learning Conference 2012, The Learning and Teaching Olympics, took place at the Rose Bowl, Leeds, on Wednesday 13th June 2012. The conference focused on how teachers inspire, push boundaries, overcome barriers, increase student confidence and improve access to learning through technology. Our Olympics was about celebrating the work teachers do in our region.
