Teaching Learning and Assessment Short Course 2015

2. Why not read further…..

3. The teaching, learning and assessment course aims to enhance the
teaching practices of health sciences educators to facilitate learning. This
is achieved through developing their knowledge base of educational
principles but more importantly supporting the integration of the concepts
learned.

4. We have two modules predominantly facilitated online; module
1 focus on best evidence teaching and module 2 centres on
assessment of student learning.
Each of the topics in the modules are offered weekly and
participants can select the topics appropriate to their teaching.
The first topic ‘Being a Teacher’ is a contact session which
must be attended by all registered participants.
To receive the certificate of completion or CPD points participants need to demonstrate activity online within
the week they have registered through accessing the weekly activities; the readings, power points,
responding to questions online, communicating with peers, creating blogs when required and participation in
the online discussion when scheduled. We estimate that participants will spend 2 hours per week on the
aforementioned activities.
Participants receive a certificate of completion or continuing professional development
(CPD) points
