This stage will include regular workshops to support your development and the assessment will be a final portfolio evidencing your teaching experience.

Learning Outcomes

  • Acknowledge the wider context in which higher education operates recognizing the implications for professional practice (UKPSF V4).

  • Establish methods for evaluating the effectiveness of teaching (UKPSF K5).

  • Recognise the implications of quality assurance and quality enhancement for academic and professional practice with a particular focus on teaching (UKPSF K6).
