Programs and Workshops
The Teaching and (e)Learning group provides a comprehensive suite of professional and organisational development programs and workshops for staff involved in teaching and curriculum development. These include:
The Foundations in (e)Learning and Teaching (FIeLT). Semesters 1 and 2.
Foundations in (e)Learning and Teaching (FIeLT) is a consolidation of the two programs, Foundations in Learning and Teaching and Foundations in eLearning, offered in previous years. It provides a comprehensive approach to learning and teaching at Macquarie and is open to all staff involved in teaching. It is particularly valuable for new and sessional staff.
The program is based in theory, but also offers a practical, interactive and experiential approach to teaching, in face-to-face and (e)learning environments. It consists of three blocks of teaching run over the semester. The first block addresses teaching and learning issues; the second, curriculum development including assessment; and the third, the evaluation of practice. There will be ongoing support for critical reflection between each of the blocks, which will be facilitated online through Learn@MQ.
It is recommended that participants enrol in the entire program, however places may be available for those wishing to participate in individual blocks only. For those completing the whole program, there will be the opportunity to articulate into the Postgraduate Certificate in Higher Education.
