Digifest is the UK’s leading learning and teaching edtech conference, annually it brings together the UK’s learning and teaching community to consider the next stage in the evolution of learning.
Run over two days in early March, Digifest shared and showcased digital learning successes, challenges and possibilities while looking ahead to the future education landscape. Its focus was on the issues that really matter, from embracing change and sustainability to the value of collaboration – always putting the student and learner first.
Weston College Group’s Principal and Chief Executive, Dr Paul Phillips CBE, took part in the ‘Shaping a sustainable future’ Digifest theme, which focused on how environmental, technological, and social trends are reshaping how and where students choose to learn and how the education sector can shape its sustainable future. This strand’s sessions was chaired by Steve Frampton, FE/HE Climate Commissioner and John O'Brien, President and CEO, EDUCAUSE and covered topics such as hybrid teaching, flexible learning spaces, developing smarter campuses and best practice in relation to net zero pledges.
