LSE Education Career Track Network

The Eden Centre hosts an informal Education Career Track Network (ECTN) for academics on the Education Career Track and in education-focused roles.

It is an opportunity to join like-minded colleagues from different departments and disciplines at the LSE to share insights and experiences of teaching in an interdisciplinary social science environment. It meets once a term. 

Talking Teaching

In 2023/24, the Eden Centre and ECT Network collaborated to run 'Talking Teaching', a series of events which were open to colleagues from across the School with an interest in sharing practice and exploring different aspects of teaching and learning.  

The events were themed around areas of interest to the Network and of strategic relevance to educational enhancement at the School. Each event welcomed three speakers to share their practice, including at least one external speaker. 

The three events were: 

  • Autumn Term: AI and Assessment with Dr Caitlin Bentley, Senior Lecturer in AI Education, King’s College London, Prof Fabio Aricò, Professor of Higher Education and Economics, University of East Anglia and Dr Marcos Barreto, Statistics. 
  • Winter Term: Authentic Assessment with Jen Harvey, Assistant Head, Academic Affairs - Learning, Teaching & Assessment, TU Dublin, Dr Jens Madsen, Psychological and Behavioural Science and Dr Will Venters, Management. 
  • Spring Term: Programme-level Assessment with Dr David Tree, Vice Dean Education / Reader (Education) in Biosciences, Brunel University, Dr Miriam Tresh, Psychological and Behavioural Science and Dr Joachim Wehner, Government. 

You can watch videos of all the speakers on our YouTube channel.
