What's in this episode?

This week’s episode is all about digital transformation in Higher Education and we range from Anglia Ruskin University in the UK to the University of Bahrain. 

First up, as part of our new mini-series feature with Canvas by Instructure, I share a conversation with Professor Iain Martin, Vice Chancellor of Anglia Ruskin University.

Our next guest in this week’s episode is Cameron Mirza, Head of Transformation, at The University of Bahrain. We talk about everything from working in the DFE during Tony Blair’s Government, the role of edtech - and specifically online - to support new learning opportunities in the Middle East, and where to pick up the best knowledge on twitter.
