The UniSA Teaching and Learning Symposium 2024 invites all staff from across the university to come together for a one-day conversation about teaching and learning at UniSA's City West campus on Friday 15 November.
The aim of the symposium is to provide an opportunity to share practice and make visible all the great work we are doing – from small scale to large. This event is about challenges, successes, interventions tried and failed, and learnings gained from inquiries made into learning and teaching theory and practice.

There will also be some practical first steps provided to get staff started in the process of decolonising curriculum.
