We are holding a two-day residential event for recently-appointed colleagues teaching on undergraduate and postgraduate courses in the social sciences. The workshops are ideally suited for colleagues in their first year of teaching in HE or those who are studying towards a PhD and have teaching commitments. This is your chance to meet colleagues from other institutions who are also new to teaching within these disciplines – to share your experiences and learn from one another.
While there will be plenty of opportunities to network and to discuss issues you raise, the events will be structured around a number of inputs and activities. These will be led by experienced lecturers. Topics covered include:
•What is this thing called … The Higher Education Academy?
•Being an educator
•Going beyond the essay
•Teaching groups
•Technology in the curriculum
•Research-informed teaching
•Peer mentoring, peer support and peer observation
•Building my career: The UK Professional Standards Framework
Date: 24 Jul 2012 - 25 Jul 2012
Start Time: 14:00 pm
Location/venue: Ramada Plaza Wrexham, Ellice Way, Wrexham, LL13 7YH , LL13 7YH
