| Description: | |||
| The primary aim of this unit is to enable participants to develop a conceptual framework for understanding tertiary teaching and learning that will enable them to become more expert facilitators of learning, and to reflect on teaching and learning more critically. The development of this framework will be informed by research in teaching and learning (both theory and practice) and enriched by investigating practices in a range of contexts and for a range of learning purposes. Participants will develop a teaching portfolio that will document and demonstrate their teaching philosophy, goals and approach. They will have experienced a range of teaching strategies within the course and reflected upon these experiences (e.g., peer teaching, small group techniques, problem based learning, computer assisted learning). Participants will also collect evidence through the unit activities and the portfolio development process that will be useful in documenting the quality of their teaching for probation, promotion and permanency.
