Community
the Educator Network is a collective of passionate educators from across the University of Newcastle. We are a community for generating and supporting ideas and creativity; a focal point for promoting and celebrating excellence in teaching; and a campfire for conversation, mentoring and networking.
To encourage collaboration the Educator Network has created a Yammer group to assist our educators with sharing good practice, supporting ideas and creativity and networking.
The below session recordings are from our virtual showcase held in 2020 on "Creating Communities of Interest/Practice for Educators"

The University of Newcastle acknowledges the traditional custodians of the lands within our footprint areas: Awabakal, Darkinjung, Biripai, Worimi, Wonnarua, and Eora Nations. We also pay respect to the wisdom of our Elders past and present.
