Explorations into experience of learning

The University of Western Australia hosted the 15th annual Teaching and Learning Forum held on the 1st and 2nd of February 2006 (http://www.catl.uwa.edu.au/tlf06). The main theme for the Forum was “Experience of Learning” embracing all that it means to be part of a community of learning. Multiple perspectives on the Experience of Learning were explored during the Forum.

This edition of ITL highlights some of these perspectives so that discussions on enhancing learning experience for students and staff can continue throughout the University.
