Teaching and Learning Conference 2019: Teaching excellence and embracing innovative teaching practices engaging and supporting “hard to reach” colleagues

Achieving excellence in teaching and learning practice requires:  a) teaching staff to develop an appetite for engaging in critical reflection on their teaching practices and pedagogies and  b) developing support systems to foster engagement and to assist with developing sharing and embedding innovative practices.  This workshop aims to look at the effectiveness of using two tools: 1) Peer review and 2) Educative mentoring to encourage and engage colleagues (especially those who are ‘hard to reach’) in reviewing and developing their teaching and learning practices in a collegiate and supportive context.
