Learning design is the process of designing learning experiences, including planning, structuring, and sequencing. Learning design should be a process that is student-centred, inclusive and accessible, pedagogically informed and aims to promote better use of technologies in teaching. The growing diversity of our student body, our increasingly global outlook and new creative opportunities brought about by technological advancements are stimulating intense debate and innovative approaches to learning and teaching. As a university, we seek to develop independent, creative, flexible and critical thinkers, able to thrive and contribute in an increasingly complex world. This means focusing not only on what we teach but also on how we teach – an area of academic practice which can be sometimes overlooked.
