UNHE502 Contexts and Issues in Tertiary Teaching

10 cp

This unit provides the opportunity for participants to review the current tertiary education context including the Catholic tertiary sector, in order to better understand, articulate and navigate the role of the academic, and to consider the implications for their practice. Participants will investigate how teaching and learning strategies can both cater for the diverse needs of students and take advantage of student diversity to enhance teaching and learning. Current trends and issues in higher education will be explored and the participants will have the opportunity to investigate an issue relevant to their teaching role in more depth such as: catering for transitions such as the first year experience or induction into the profession, catering for students with disabilities, online pedagogy, research student supervision and examination.
