MKE Teaching Practice Conference 2023

At last year’s conference we explored how management education can have impact on students, peers and the wider business world, post-pandemic.  Teaching and learning have the power to change lives and contribute to business success but are often swamped by other activities.  If you think your institution is losing sight of its core function to educate and promote learning then what can you do?

It is not easy as an individual to influence peers and focus on what matters for learning.  But as a collective we can encourage one another with powerful experiences and stories of success, helping one another when the going seems tough. Business and management schools perform many important roles, but surely none more important than teaching and learning.

This conference is designed to be interactive and supportive. We invite participants to share their experiences of how everyday practices of university teaching and learning impact the lives of their students and colleagues. The conference will be a supportive place to do this and learn from others.

We will be offering ‘market-place’ tables for conversations around key themes identified from your submissions. There will also be opportunities for sensemaking, imagining what teaching might look like in the future, exploring the changing roles of educators and students, as well as opportunities for personal action-planning.

The intention is that this day of learning and networking will support you as practitioners, educators and as ‘academics’ to grow one or more communities of practice. Our vision is to meet needs for practice development across management education in a way that is inclusive, practical and highly engaging.

There are a range of ways in which we can both enhance impact and use our work to develop our careers.  This conference is therefore designed to support you by creating a space for discussion and reflection on how your impactful practice can be disseminated.  We aim to design a number of opportunities to share practical ideas about how we can do this, thus benefitting both the field and our careers. Last year our ‘meet the management journal editor’ session was well received. This year we are looking for ways to build upon this. Publishing in journals is just one way to be impactful. More information will follow nearer the event.

The conference will take in London at the location below:

The Bartlett School of Sustainable Construction / UCL UCL at Here East | 8-9 East Bay Lane | Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park | London | E15 2GW
