In this seminar, Dr Arthur Galamba will advocate for the integration of a robust pedagogical framework within Higher Education that effectively amalgamates both physical and digital learning environments. Acknowledging the contemporary significance of digital technology in education, he will contend that educators within Higher Education should embrace a pedagogical approach termed 'hybrid immersive.' This pedagogical paradigm aims to augment students' engagement within digitally enhanced classrooms, fostering an environment conducive to expanded inquiry, discourse, and instructor feedback both preceding and succeeding in-person sessions.
