The student perspective on the learning experience is the most important of all and we welcomed Karolina to share her thoughts as a student. More specifically she spoke from the perspective of being a female student working in the environments of professional AV and music technology that are traditionally male dominated. Karolina works at the interface of art, technology and science as a research assistant in Trondheim and Co-Chair of the organization Women Nordic Music Technology (WoNoMute).

AV and Accessibility: avoiding the dangerously dismissive or pedagogically paralysed - Alistair McNaught, Independent Consultant 

# data[].attributes.body
Across the EU a directive on web accessibility has brought the needs of disabled learners sharply into focus. Complying with the new guidance sets a real challenge for universities and public sector bodies. AV professionals need to ensure that our tools and multimedia resources are used to best advantage to enhance the learning experience.

In this session, Alistair McNaught an accessibility consultant and founding member of the UK Digital Accessibility Working Group, unpicks technical accessibility from the needs of disabled students. He offers frameworks to help organisations move forward with good pedagogical practices whilst reducing the risk of both litigation and unintended consequences by risk-averse teaching teams.

Teaching via telepresence has the potential for significant disruption and also raises profound questions of pedagogy. Will ‘holography’ remove the final barriers between the co-located and the distant, or will it lead to new barriers between teacher and learner? What are the unique affordances and particular challenges of educational experiences such as these? Would the holographic academic become just another educational technology gimmick, or could it become the next learning frontier?

In this workshop we used a speculative design approach to imagine a possible future where we need to plan for the use of such tools. Participants were encouraged to think ahead and develop a set of approaches for supporting those that are preparing to enter into this brave new world. In doing so, they gained insights into the potentials and challenges of this tool as an emerging educational technology for bringing new dimensions to blended and distance learning.

Digital technology makes it possible to connect students and teaching staff across geographical distances offering the possibility to mix physical and virtual participation, share similar classes between different institutions and allow multi-campus universities to increase the selection of courses at each campus. Norwegian universities have considerable experience of both designing and repurposing courses in these types of environment. Robin, Fredrik and Magnus shared examples and lessons learned using both standard and ‘high end’ AV technologies.

TU Delft Education Spaces Configurator (TUDESC) is helping the University put teaching and learning practice at the heart of new build and refurbishment projects. The interactive tool was developed to support university staff and contractors by facilitating communication across the different professional disciplines and helping avoid common and persistent errors relating to issues such as readability, sightlines, seating capacity and accessibility.
