A two-day residential forum at Charles Sturt University (CSU) in Bathurst on Wednesday 13 and Thursday 14 April will hear from Australian and international practice-based education experts led by CSU’s Professor Joy Higgs and Professor Stephen Kemmis. The forum is the second part of the 2011 Practice-Based Education Summit, and follows a one-day session at Sydney Olympic Park last week. Professor Joy Higgs, the Director of CSU’s Education for Practice Institute, said, “Higher education in general, and Charles Sturt University in particular, places a high priority on preparing graduates for work and life. The Summit will enable practice-based education experts to illustrate challenges to the field, and contribute to its advancement by sharing good practice models and examples.” Visiting experts include Associate Professor Laurie Grealish (Canberra University), Ms Carol-Joy Patrick (Griffith University) and Adjunct Associate Professor Jan Orrell (Flinders University).
