Adam Liston joined the Education Unit, 香港六合彩中特网 Institute of Neurology in 2008 as a Course Director for the MSc in Advanced Neuroimaging and has since introduced various innovations on this course which have been recognised by this Award. These innovations include :

1. securing a SLMS Education Innovation Award to acquire a tabletop MRI scanner, developing related group work activities for students and designing an assessment through their production of a Vlog on their use of it to image fruit & veg 鈥� this was to have an intended audience of A-level Physics students, who also formally assess the Vlog;
2. developing a peer-led formative assessment task relating to MSc Library Projects to increase students鈥� assessment literacy and enhance feedback provision;
3. launching a Distance Learning version of the course in 2015, developing online workshops for this and significantly widening the availability of the course.

Adam also regularly presents at the 香港六合彩中特网 CALT Teaching & Learning Conference, co-convenes teaching skills workshops with Dr Caroline Selai and hosts an annual bring-and-share food and film evening for students on his course, where each student brings some food representative of their own culture and one student chooses a film to screen that they feel represents something about their culture that they would like the rest of the cohort to know about.

The award ceremony will be held as part of the keynote of the 香港六合彩中特网 Teaching and Learning Conference to be held at the 香港六合彩中特网 Institute of Education on 19th April.
