Sustaining Scholarship:
Furthering and applying knowledge through student-centred practices
The 2024 ACAP Annual Conference is dedicated to advancing scholarship in education through innovative, student-centred practices. This year’s theme, Sustaining Scholarship: Furthering and Applying Knowledge Through Student-Centred Practices, emphasises the importance of sharing and incorporating scholarly knowledge into our educative, student-centred practices across disciplines.
Join our ACAP colleagues and academic leaders as we explore strategies for integrating student perspectives into the heart of academic inquiry. Through a series of thought-provoking keynote, presentations, and panel-led discussions, engage with the latest research and approaches and thinking for fostering and sustaining scholarship.
This conference offers a unique platform for sharing insights, exchanging ideas, and building partnerships that extend beyond the event itself. Whether you are an experienced academic teacher or an emerging scholar, this conference provides an opportunity to deepen your understanding of student-centred scholarship and its impact on sustaining knowledge within academic communities.
welcome to the 2024 conference
This year’s conference will be held as a hybrid model, with coordinated online streaming and face-to-face interaction. Presentations will be delivered both online and live from all ACAP campuses. We strongly encourage in-person attendance at our ACAP campuses to take advantage of valuable in-person interactions and discussions. Attendees can register to attend either on campus, where they can engage in networking and social events, or online.
Come and be part of a transformative experience that celebrates the academic community’s achievements and inspires future directions in scholarship and teaching. Together, we will explore how to sustain and enrich our academic practices by placing students at the centre of our scholarly pursuits.
