The main theme of the 2021 conference was Learning Spaces: the physical, virtual and social rooms or arenas for learning that you and/or others have created and acted in.
Inge de Waard – Learning Strategist & Hopeful Explorer
Inge is a senior learning strategist, longtime researcher, award-winning learning innovator and (e)Learning coordinator. She has taught master students in eLearning knowledge (Institute of Tropical Medicine - ITM), built new courses (MobiMOOC – massive open online course on mobile learning), mentor professional engineers to prepare them for international, blended curricula (InnoEnergy, Europe), and researched Technology Enhanced Learning in formal, blended, and informal settings (ITM, Belgium, Athabasca University, Canada; The Open University, UK). Her expertise has been recognised by peers, resulting in additional co-authored papers, invited talks and keynotes in both academic as well as professional conferences, workshops and seminars.
Her latest project involves the learning aspect of a project in development at InnoEnergy, called SkillCharge. This project combines AI, HR and Learning to match courses to skill gaps that individuals might have, based on analysing their resume with AI and then matching courses (formal and informal learning) with that same AI engine.
