10th Annual Improving  Student Learning Symposium
Improving  Student Learning Conference 4-6 September 2002 Brussels
Early   bird registration  for the Improving student Learning Symposium ends on 30th June.
The major aim of the Improving Student Learning Symposia is to provide a forum which brings together those who are primarily researchers into learning in higher education and those who are
primarily practitioners concerned more pragmatically with improving their practice, but from whichever starting point, papers are only accepted if they take a sufficiently scholarly,
research-based approach.
