Apologies for multiple postings **************************************************************** Implementing an effective departmental learning, teaching and assessment strategy 29th November led by Trevor Habeshaw **************************************************************** Background The 1999 initiative by HEFCE which encouraged Institutions to prepare and submit to them a 'Learning & Teaching Strategy' was successful in generating a good deal of organisational thinking and action which is now being replicated in schools, faculties and departments. This workshop will help these latter groups to carry the initiative forward at the next level, with attention to particular problems that may arise within art and design. Aims: The aims of the workshop are: * to discuss the process of producing a college-based learning, teaching and assessment strategy; * to exchange ideas on ways in which the distinctive characters of the colleges can be sustained during the process; * to identify and plan ways in which colleagues within the colleges can be encouraged (a) to participate in the process of creation of their strategy, and (b) to take ownership of it in their ongoing programmes of work. * bearing in mind the many other demand on colleagues, to devise a realistic action plan whereby the whole process can be successfully managed. About the leader He is an experienced consultant having worked in many universities and higher education institutions in the UK, Sweden and Australia, both for his own consultancy. *************************************************************** Booking via the web at http://www.cltad.ac.uk or via email to [log in to unmask], or tel: Felix 8162 -- ************************************************ Felix Lam Co-ordinator, The Centre for Learning & Teaching in Art & Design (cltad) c/o 65 Davies Street, London W1K 5DA tel: +44 (0) 207 514 8162 (dd) fax: +44 (0) 207 514 6994 email: [log in to unmask] or [log in to unmask] http://www.cltad.ac.uk
