The BAM MKE Teaching Practice conference has been rescheduled to Friday 18th November 2022.
All papers accepted for the initial Wednesday 22 June 2022 date will be automatically included in the rescheduled event unless you notify us to the contrary.
We apologise for any inconvenience. Thank you so much for your understanding.
Come along to our MKE Teaching Practice Conference to share good practice and be part of the community in a supportive and hands-on open space. The theme of the Conference is ‘A Brave New World: Management Education in the Post-Covid Era’.
The pandemic has forced a massive shift away from learning and teaching in traditional settings with physical interactions. It is evident that we cannot return to the world as it was before. However, with challenges, opportunities emerge. The MKE Conference aims to encourage business and management educators to reflect on their learning and teaching in the post-Covid era. What are the lessons learnt during the pandemic and how can we build on this?
We very much welcome everyone from early, mid and advanced practitioners including those of you who have entered for or won teaching awards to come and share your work.
Please find below a video introduction to the Teaching Practice Conference
Location
The conference will take place at Birkbeck, University of London.
Keynote Speaker
Prof Jess Power
Jess Power, Professor of Learning and Teaching at The University of Salford and lead for the newly formed Learning and Teaching Enhancement Centre (LTEC). She is a Principal Fellow of the Higher Education Academy, Fellow of The Textile Institute, Fellow of Chartered Management Institute, and a National Teaching Fellow (2016). Professor Power has over 20 years teaching experience and has contributed extensively to the development of learning and teaching innovation both in her subject discipline (fashion/textiles) and more widely across HE. She is an advocate for using evidenced based research approaches to make significant impact regionally, nationally and internationally. Jess has led a variety of internally and externally funded research projects and has published widely with over 90 national/international publications/keynotes. She is an experienced PHD/DBA supervisor and has examined widely nationally and internationally.
Jess is particularly interested in contributing to shaping the future of Higher Education through interdisciplinarity working. Her innovative approach bridges disciplines and has resulted in best practice models for integrating interdisciplinarity into learning and teaching. Her focus on interdisciplinarity has enabled her to transform the student experience by creating networks for individuals who share the common goal of transferring knowledge beyond the boundaries of their own disciplines, whilst developing employability and enterprising skills.
Jess holds the position of Honorary Secretary for The Textile Institute (the international professional body, active in over 90 different countries) and serves on their Publications Committee and Professional Accreditation Committee. This enables her to share sectoral knowledge by regularly mentoring overseas’ institutions in developing short commercial courses, thus enhancing industry standards. Her expertise and specialist knowledge spans both fashion and textiles and crosses into other disciplines (health, engineering, education and business). This is evidenced through her sustained publication portfolio which demonstrates high quality research with impact for the commercial and wider HE sector. Further to this she is an Associate of the Entrepreneurial Leaders Programme and part of the Leadership Committee for the Group for Learning in Art and Design (GLAD). This is a national group promoting and supporting pedagogic good practice within the art and design sector).
Her recent projects have formed blueprints for innovation and have been widely disseminated through a series of high profile case studies and have been nationally and internationally recognised as good practice.
Currently Jess is leading a small team of Academic Developers and Learning Technologists within the University of Salford's Learning and Teaching Enhancement Centre.
