ICT is changing the nature of teaching at Queen’s.
Almost all University lecture theatres have data projectors, which in some cases are partnered with interactive voting systems. This offers a more challenging and interesting experience.
You can also access lectures over the Internet, or download them to your iPod.
Flexible teaching areas that accommodate a wide range of teaching and learning styles increasingly complement traditional lecture rooms.
