About LUMSx Nexus 2026

LUMSx Nexus is a flagship annual event designed to unite LUMSx alumni, their instructors, and the wider LUMSx community in a shared celebration of lifelong learning. Bringing together graduates from across multiple cohorts, Nexus serves as a dynamic platform where alumni reconnect with the people and ideas that shaped their journey, and discover new ones. Through curated interactions, panel discussions, and networking opportunities, attendees gain access to insights, perspectives, and connections that extend well beyond the classroom. Nexus is also envisioned as an evolving tradition, an annual gathering that grows richer with each edition as the LUMSx alumni community expands. Every year, it offers a fresh opportunity for alumni to deepen relationships, stay connected to their learning roots, and collectively raise the bar on what professional development can look like.

Learning Lab Workshops

Workshop 01

Learning by Design: Modern Learning Design Principles for Classroom Teachers

This hands-on workshop unpacks core learning science principles including constructive alignment, cognitive load, microlearning, and authentic assessment, and shows you how to apply them to your own teaching. Using established frameworks like Bloom’s Taxonomy and BOPPPS, you’ll leave with a clearer, more intentional approach to designing learning experiences that actually work. Ideal for educators, potential learners, and LUMSx Alumni.
