On 28th November OxTalks will move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events' (full details are available on the Staff Gateway).
There will be an OxTalks freeze beginning on Friday 14th November. This means you will need to publish any of your known events to OxTalks by then as there will be no facility to publish or edit events in that fortnight. During the freeze, all events will be migrated to the new Oxford Events site. It will still be possible to view events on OxTalks during this time.
If you have any questions, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Jerome Bruner made a profound contribution to our understanding of the process of education and to the development of curriculum theory. With his death last year at age 100, we celebrate Bruner’s contribution to education and to research in Oxford’s Department of Education where he led an ESRC early years research programme in 1974-1978.
The memorial lecture will be given by Catherine Snow, Albjerg Graham Professor of Education at Harvard’s Graduate School of Education. Professor Snow is an expert on language and literacy, focusing on how oral language skills are acquired and relate to literacy. Professor Snow’s work is a compelling example of how to bridge the theory-practice gap in ways that inform both sides of the divide.
