As you may have heard, the first LSE Teaching Day will take place on Tuesday 9 June. School director Howard Davies will open the proceedings, which will include a programme of workshops, seminars and panel discussions including innovative approaches to teaching and the latest technologies and resources for staff.

The main speech of the day will be given by Dr Jonathan Leape, senior lecturer in Economics, on ‘Thinking Like A Social Scientist’. Professor Janet Hartley, LSE pro-director, will close the event with a presentation of the Teaching Excellence Awards at a wine reception.
