We are happy to announce this semester’s MIND hybrid (data) sessions and TechKnowModes MIND lab activities!
In addition to data sessions organised by our colleagues at Mälardalen University, the programme features our regular MARG X MIND crossover data sessions organised in collaboration with Newcastle University, as well as a data session with Prof Hansun Waring from Teachers College, Columbia University, another partner university that we work with.
MIND research group is also starting to organise activities under the umbrella of our practice-based research environment at Mälardalen University: TechKnowModes. We will contribute to this new, exciting research and practice environment as the “TechKnowModes MIND lab”. We look forward to working in cooperation with other labs and making MDU a knowledge hub that connects theory and practice, bridges research and teaching, and inspires students, teachers, lecturers, and researchers in the region and beyond.
Our first TechknowModes MIND Lab event is a data visualisation workshop to be organised by Eva-Lena Forslind. We are planning to run workshops and other activities for students and teachers once our practice environment is up and running with its simulation rooms, labs, design studio, and other premises.
Please see the list of our sessions and our poster below.
We look forward to seeing you online or in person in Västerås! Please get in touch (olcay.sert@mdu.se) if you want to attend the sessions and/or enroll in the email list.
