Being introduced to “conscious abandonment” or the ability to unlearn what is no longer true or relevant by @Rebecca_GradC was one of my highlights of the panel today. Something that’s going to be super important for grads of tomorrow (and today!)
Rebecca Fielding says that the core purpose of education has come back full circle to an emphasis on learning how to think critically, and stresses the importance of learning agility - and the ability to unlearn. #QIconference24

Some fascinating findings of a QAA-funded Collaborative Enhancement Project on innovation in quality assurance are shared by Emma Lewis from @nmite_ac at #QIconference24
ALT Some initial findings... Survey: 65% felt QA supported innovation either a great deal or somewhat. 35% identified teaching and learning strategies as the QA domain having most impact on innovation (2nd highest choice = staff capability). 68% of the changes made to QA processes during Covid were retained.
