SUMMARY:Supporting Wellbeing in Practice
DESCRIPTION:The Union of Students Ireland with the support of the National Forum for the Enhancement of Teaching and Learning in Higher Education invites you to the online webinar on “Supporting Wellbeing in Practice” across the sector.   \nThe Union of Students in Ireland (USI) and the National Forum partnered on a very exciting research project beginning in January 2021 that examined the practice of embedding wellbeing in the curriculum in higher education in Ireland. The project set out to capture how wellbeing is currently being embedded in the curricula of higher education institutions nationally and internationally and identify features of good practice. The research has culminated in a report completed by Dr Jessica Surdey and Dr Deirdre Byrne which discusses the key insights gained from the study and exemplars of good practice identified. This report will be launched at the event.  \nThe project was complemented by a working group chaired by the USI President created by the Minister for Further and Higher Education\, Simon Harris T.D.\, to identify\, refine and implement strategies to enhance student engagement and wellbeing.  \nThis event will feature lightning talks from the leaders of innovative projects around student mental health that have built the evidence base for the sector. The talks will outline their projects and the future implications for institutions in their work to enhance student wellbeing.   \nThis online event takes place on Thursday 14th October 2021 from 12:30 – 13:30.  \nClick here to register for this event. \n  \n\n\n\nWelcome  \nUSI Vice President for Academic Affairs\, Megan O’ Connor \n\n\nIntroduction   \nDr. Padraig McNeela  \n\n\nWellbeing in the Curriculum Report   \nDr. Jessica Surdey and Dr Deirdre Byrne \n\n\nNational Framework for Mental Health Contribution\nTreasa Fox  \n\n\nHealthy Campus Contribution  \nBiddy O’ Neill   \nNational Project Lead Health and Wellbeing – Department of Health \n\n\nYP3 Contribution  \nRalph Astley \n\n\nIBEC Contribution  \nMeadhbh Costello  \n\n\nHEA Contribution   \nTim Conlon \n\n\nPanel Discussion  \nTim Conlon\, Meadhbh Costello\, Somhairle Brennan and Rebecca Lane\,

SUMMARY:Competencies\, Expectations and Learning Contracts in Work-Based Assessment:  How are they related?
DESCRIPTION:The National Forum\, in partnership with Quality and Qualifications Ireland (QQI)\, will host an online webinar entitled ‘Competencies\, Expectations and Learning Contracts in Work-Based Assessment: How are they related?’ on Thursday\, 23 September 2021\, 12.00-13.30. \nAssessment of work-integrated learning can be challenging in relation to the: \n\nExpectation of what is to be assessed in advance of the experience (the level and number of competencies)\,\nThe diverse learning opportunities provided by the placement/experience for these competencies\, and the\nUnique learning goals of the students.\n\nRecent research\, by Associate Professor Geraldine O’Neill as part of her National Forum Teaching and Learning (NFTL) Research Fellowship\, has highlighted some initial findings that may help understand the relationship between these three challenges. For example\, disciplinary groups in the research highlighted:  a) the importance of the clarification of expectations in work-based assessment; b) the need to avoid over-specification of competencies; c) the value of inter-stakeholder dialogue; and d) the creation of context specific learning contracts. \nThis webinar will present some of the initial findings from this NFTL Research Fellowship and will support discussion around their implications for practice and policy. \nRecording: https://hub.teachingandlearning.ie/resource/competencies-expectations-and-learning-contracts-in-work-based-assessment-how-are-they-related/
