One of the key educational outcomes of the recent disruptive events is the awareness that we need to look at alternate learning spaces. The SCITAL Forum invites you to a discussion of this important topic which is the first of a series on Learning Spaces. The SCITAL Forum is a science initiative on teaching and learning and meetings are open to everyone.

An important aspect of making use of an alternate learning space is the availability of Wi-Fi and many questions then come to mind: To hat extend is Wi-Fi available on campus and off campus? What is Tshwane’s position regarding its roll-out of free Wi-Fi in the city? How ClickUP friendly are mobile devices and are there ClickUP Apps available? What other learning spaces exist?

We invited the experts to answer these questions: André Kleynhans, Deputy Director of IT, will give a talk on Wi-Fi availability on campus; Dolf Jordaan, IT expert from Education Innovation, will talk about mobile accessibility; James Devine from Projectisizwe will give a talk regarding the City of Tshwane’s roll-out of Wi-Fi. Join us to be informed and newly inspired.
