Roger Landbeck Professional Development Fund now open for applications
31 July 2023
The Roger Landbeck Professional Development Fund (RLPDF) aims at supporting early career researchers from the Oceania region in their development as researchers and in connecting with their home communities. The fund aims at supporting the creation of hubs of sharing or communities of practice among early career researchers. It recognizes the importance of two-directional knowledge flows between researchers and communities and honours the knowledge of those communities.
In the 2023 round two grants of up to AUD 5,000 (including GST for expenses accruing in Australia) are available. The call for applications closes on 31 July 2023.

Wednesday, 26 July; 1pm-2pm AEST (Melbourne)
AARE Assessment and Measurement SIG Webinar: There are no good tools, only good practices
Good feedback does not happen through tools, technologies or methods. It is most likely to happen through careful configuration of many elements and the skillful enactment of relational and collaborative practices that are attuned to the situation at hand. In this talk, Dr. Tim Fawns will explain this idea in relation to some of his work on postdigital education and entangled pedagogy.

The Indigenous Voice to Parliament microcredential
Macquarie University has developed a free microcredential available to anyone seeking to engage with the Indigenous Voice to Parliament and gain knowledge to make an informed decision.
Universities hold a unique position in providing education and scholarship that inform our communities on social and political agendas. Macquarie University has taken this approach by creating opportunities in a culturally safe environment to promote and facilitate respectful discussions and considerations.
The module is neither politically motivated nor does it endorse any specific agenda or decision. Our primary goal is to offer a well-rounded perspective on the subject matter and ensure a fair presentation incorporating a wide range of viewpoints and considering the historical context surrounding the referendum on the Indigenous Voice to Parliament.
