Dear TA
Welcome to the FSTADP course .We hope that
participation in this course will give you some practical grounding in teaching
in Higher Education.
Let us give you a quick overview of the course
and what to expect in the following few months.
We have arranged the course into nine workshops . Detailed information about each individual workshop is provided at the right hand side of
this blog post. Visit each workshop page in the week in which it is provided.
There, you will find summaries and resources which will help you complete your
learning tasks. All your learning task instructions will be posted on the 'workshop pages' as well as
this home page. We will give you ample time to complete each task and give you deadlines for handing in the final tasks.
This blog space is designed to give you an opportunity to
participate in learning with other TAs and your facilitators as you engage with
each task. Use this blog space to ask questions, comment on what others have submitted and learn.
The most important space will be your own individual blog
where you will complete and reflect on the activities we have given you. All we
need is a link to each of your tasks.
Once you have a completed a task and uploaded it, your facilitators will give you
feedback and tell you whether it still requires some work.
All your completed tasks need to be collated together in a portfolio of evidence for your final
assessment. There is a rubric for
marking this final portfolio.
Remember, you are required to:
- Attend and participate in all programme activities.
- Read and keep up with tasks and learning activities provided and be prepared to enter your reflections as blog entries.
- Keep records of all sessions and workshops given.
- Compile a portfolio of evidence for the participation experience in a Teaching Portfolio.
