Higher education is experiencing unprecedented challenges driven by changing student needs, technological transformations, government regulations and financial constraints.
Students are at the heart of our teaching and learning practices. Student success is a complex concept involving academic achievement and the transition to employment, entrepreneurship or further education.
Our portfolio of professional development opportunities aims to support you in delivering educational excellence by convening the sector to share innovative and emergent practices and resources.
Developing your pedagogy to make a positive impact
Our portfolio will help you build or refresh your pedagogy throughout your career. It offers:
- practical strategies and tools to enhance student success
- knowledge to help develop effective curricula
- opportunities to network with like-minded peers
- opportunities for recognising your teaching and learning practices.
This was a very informative workshop, providing a useful overview of the main issues regarding inclusive assessment and a detailed resource list for further reading.”
