UNHE500 Teaching and Learning in Higher Education

10 cp

This is the introductory unit for the Graduate Certificate in Higher Education and, as such, will provide the theoretical framework for participants to reflect upon and enhance their practice as tertiary teachers, in particular in a Catholic university. Participants will study the teaching and learning theories and strategies that support effective university teaching. In addition, key focuses of the unit will be for participants to explore how Universitys policies relate to them in their goal of achieving the desired graduate attributes in their students and the inclusion of faith-based/values-based perspectives in their teaching. It is expected that by the end of the unit participants will begin to develop an informed personal vision of teaching in higher education and of the Catholic intellectual tradition, and commenced the compilation of a teaching and learning portfolio.
