Dear Educators,
Digital transformation is enabling Asia to adopt more
interactive, student centered blended learning approaches in
education, with traditional concepts of pedagogy and learning
approaches shifting in order to improve engagement and
student outcomes. This transformation and ongoing evolution
in teaching presents new challenges including: How can
successful models of learning be adapted to work in more
collaborative and interactive blended learning environments?
What is the best way to inspire cultural change across faculties
and campus to support them in implementing pedagogical
shifts to blended learning? How can existing classrooms and
campuses be repurposed into active blended learning spaces,
and what role does the purposeful application of technology
play in such development?
With this in mind and following the success of our education
events globally, IQPC is delighted to put together Asia’s first
event focused on Blended Learning to be held from 15-16 June,
2016 in Singapore.
This event will deliver strategies on how to achieve excellence
in collaborative learning by integrating pedagogy and new
technologies to create the next generation of blended learning
environments to ultimately improve student experiences
and learning outcomes.
We hope you will join us in this unique opportunity to share,
engage and brainstorm with your colleagues on how to inspire
learners and support instructional outcomes with innovative
campus spaces and digital environments.
I look forward to seeing you in June 2016.

can support the design and delivery of teaching
material and help students effectively think through and
communicate their work. Creating learning resources and
establishing networks for the dissemination of ideas and
techniques can simplify the communication of complex
ideas and enhance critical understandings. In building on
the research and teaching expertise of its core members
in relation to visual ideation, creativity and mobile
technologies, this workshop can help in crafting learning
that is research-inspired, trans disciplinary and integrated
both in terms of student learning and staff development.
In this hands-on workshop you will:
 Engage in some visual thinking exercises
 Share experiences of visual thinking and doing
 Explore some lo-tech, hi-impact techniques that can be
modified to suit a range of teaching contexts
 Consider ways to enhance one of your own text-
based activities by tapping into more visual modes of
engagement
WORKSHOP B § 13:00-16:00
Visual thinking: creatively
disrupting the primacy of text-
based teaching  learning
“I was empowered with the wealth of information and insights shared and
exchanged among the participants at the conference. While we listened to
presentations from the speakers, the group discussion sessions provided us
with very current and relevant ideas drawn from individual experiences of the
participants.”

POST – CONFERENCE WORKSHOP
FRIDAY, 17 JUNE 2016
M-learning or mobile learning is often described as
learning across multiple contexts, through social and
content interactions, using personal electronic devices.
M-learning technologies focus on the mobility of the
learner, interacting with portable technologies, ranging
from MP3 players to tablets. Mobile devices in a blended
context allow students to engage, participate, collaborate
and share using devices that most of them already have
in their pockets and that are familiar and comfortable for
them.
The challenge facing many universities and educational
institutions is now devising BYOD policies to facilitate
students using their own devices for studying and
equipping academics with the knowledge to utilize
mobile technologies in their teaching.

  • 2. Dear Educators, Digital transformation is enabling Asia to adopt more interactive, student centered blended learning approaches in education, with traditional concepts of pedagogy and learning approaches shifting in order to improve engagement and student outcomes. This transformation and ongoing evolution in teaching presents new challenges including: How can successful models of learning be adapted to work in more collaborative and interactive blended learning environments? What is the best way to inspire cultural change across faculties and campus to support them in implementing pedagogical shifts to blended learning? How can existing classrooms and campuses be repurposed into active blended learning spaces, and what role does the purposeful application of technology play in such development? With this in mind and following the success of our education events globally, IQPC is delighted to put together Asia’s first event focused on Blended Learning to be held from 15-16 June, 2016 in Singapore. This event will deliver strategies on how to achieve excellence in collaborative learning by integrating pedagogy and new technologies to create the next generation of blended learning environments to ultimately improve student experiences and learning outcomes. We hope you will join us in this unique opportunity to share, engage and brainstorm with your colleagues on how to inspire learners and support instructional outcomes with innovative campus spaces and digital environments. I look forward to seeing you in June 2016.

  • 10. POST – CONFERENCE WORKSHOP FRIDAY, 17 JUNE 2016 M-learning or mobile learning is often described as learning across multiple contexts, through social and content interactions, using personal electronic devices. M-learning technologies focus on the mobility of the learner, interacting with portable technologies, ranging from MP3 players to tablets. Mobile devices in a blended context allow students to engage, participate, collaborate and share using devices that most of them already have in their pockets and that are familiar and comfortable for them. The challenge facing many universities and educational institutions is now devising BYOD policies to facilitate students using their own devices for studying and equipping academics with the knowledge to utilize mobile technologies in their teaching. Professor Lam Lai Chuen Paul Associate Professor, Centre for Learning Enhancement Research, The Chinese University of Hong Kong About your Workshop Leader: Paul Lam joined the Centre for Learning Enhancement Research in 2003.
