Advanced Academic Teaching Skills
If you teach your subject at tertiary level to international students in English, this workshop will help build your confidence, and help you engage your students. It is 40 hours, and is usually run over 5 days (full-time), or 10 days (part-time). It focuses on the various contexts Higher Educational academic staff work in with their students.
The workshop looks at ways to deliver a lecture effectively, to guide the listener with signposting, as well as to engage learners actively in order to promote efficient learning.
Participants will have the opportunity to try out a range of classroom activities and online tools for increasing participation, promoting deeper learning, and enabling their students to internalise and relate to new knowledge. Participants will also be required to run a mini teaching session for their peers on a topic from their field of expertise.
Extra add-on: participants can opt to submit individually, and within two weeks of the course finishing, a short video (max 20’ extract) of their teaching, for feedback from the tutor.

Participants will become familiar with a range of ways to engage their students actively in the learning process – whether working on- or offline – to ensure engagement.
Besides looking at effective questioning, participants will have the chance to try out a number of short activities which can be run with both small and much larger groups.
