Object-based Learning workshop and book launch

To mark the publication of Thomas Kador’s , we are hosting an Object-based Learning (OBL) workshop followed by a reception and book launch.

The workshop will take place at UCL Institute of Advanced Studies, and provides an opportunity to encounter and explore some of the objects that are featured in the book as well as a range of other OBL activities.

This will be followed by a reception and (slightly more) formal book launch at the Grant Museum of Zoology, introduced by Professor Helen Chatterjee.

While this book will be freely downloadable from early September (via the link below), paper copies will be available for purchase on the day.
