This 8-week online facilitated course combines self-paced content with two live online meet-ups to create the ideal blend for adult learners. We limit the size of each cohort, so that you can benefit from 1:1 support from your facilitator and get to know the other learners in your group. This learning environment simultaneously enables new tutors and encourages more experienced tutors to grow. Learners are encouraged to share their personal expertise to benefit the rest of the group.
We cover the foundational principles of teaching and learning. Topics include the roles and responsibilities involved in teaching and learning and best evidence-informed practice, with a particular focus on inclusion, assessment and feedback. Our resources are beautifully-produced, with powerful conceptual models and plenty of practical strategies and further reading to encourage you to delve deeply.
Our assessments are both meaningful and manageable - allowing you to show what you know and continually reflect on your next professional steps.
What you need to know:
- Units are available for you to work through at your own pace alongside Live Unit Workshops which are held every other week.
- You will study units 1-5 independently with videos, tasks and discussion forums.
- There are two required assessments (Units 6 and 7).
