University Assessment, Learning and Teaching:

New Research Directions for a Postdigital World

To mark our fifth anniversary, CRADLE hosted an online higher education research conference from 19–20 October 2020. The conference theme was ‘University Assessment, Learning and Teaching: New Research Directions for a Postdigital World’. Two international researchers presented keynotes at the conference:

• Associate Professor Alyssa Wise, New York University: The data-intensive university in a postdigital world: New directions in teaching and learning.
• Professor Monika Nerland, University of Oslo: Reconfiguring relations between higher education and work: Knowledge practices and learning in the (post)digital era.

The conference brought together local and international higher education researchers and educators, and many others with an interest in learning and teaching, for two days of thought-provoking virtual presentations and conversations.

Our panel session discussed what it means to be a university student in the postdigital age.
