Enhancing Student Engagement Post Covid

The Dean of Teaching and Learning Seminar Series is delighted to welcome Dr Harriet Dunbar-Morris to Maynooth University to host this Masterclass in conjunction with the School of Law and Criminology. Dr Dunbar-Morris is the Dean of Learning and Teaching at the University of Portsmouth. Her expertise is in teaching and learning, student engagement, student experience and widening participation. She has worked on research projects on the student experience of teaching and learning; the transition to HE; widening participation to HE; and admissions to HE.

In this Masterclass, Dr Dunbar-Morris will focus on ways to understand and enhance student engagement in the classroom and to explore challenges and opportunities for student engagement in the post-Covid era. This will be largely based on Dr Dunbar-Morris’ own research in this area, notably her 2021 article on student engagement in blended and connected learning and teaching, which explored engagement opportunities in this regard. Dr Dunbar-Morris will explore the engagement-related challenges in the provision of blended learning and how these can be improved in practice.   

Refreshments will be provided.
