About the Conference

In the time of pandemic, we all face new challenges with the sudden transition to online teaching, and the needs for sharing our experiences and resources especially within our University are increasing. The Internal Education Conference at Sabancı University has been serving as a platform for sharing and nurturing collaborations among all SU educators, and this year’s conference will take place online focusing on practical topics as we prepare for another online semester.

The 3rd SU Internal VIRTUAL Education Conference will take the form of a series of online sessions on September 21-22, 2020. The main aim of the conference is to share teaching and learning practices and tools useful for creating a better and more effective learning environment in remote education. The sessions are open to all educators, researchers and graduate teaching assistants at SU, and will be recorded and shared on SUCourse+.

We look forward to your presence and contribution to the conference!
