New to Teaching in HE Workshops
Aimed specifically at those staff who are starting off in higher education teaching as an associate lecturer, technician or post-graduate student, these workshops are run over two days and provide an opportunity to discuss ways of encouraging student learning, assessment and potential challenges, all of which previous attendees have found invaluable.
These are also open to registered lecturers employed by partner organisations. There are no fees for these workshops.
In brief, the workshops cover:
-
selecting and evaluating appropriate approaches to teaching and supporting learning for their discipline and situations
-
treating students as individual learners
-
class and student interaction with assessment strategies
-
feedback
-
dealing with challenging teaching situations
-
