Resources to support the design and delivery of EPICUR courses
What does this Best Practice Guide offer?
The guide provides accessible guidance and inspiration for teachers and educational developers interested in developing and /or teaching EPICUR courses and learning experiences. It focuses on those aspects of course design and delivery which are particularly associated with EPICUR values, otherwise known as the six ‘I’s: inclusive, interactive, innovative, international, intercultural, interdisciplinary.
You are welcome to share feedback on the Best Practice Guide directly with the editor Donna Hurford.
