SUMMARY:Reinventing University: the Digital Challenge in Higher Education
DESCRIPTION:Digital transformation in Higher Education (HE) is a major priority for the European Union (EU). In the years to come\, Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) will be reconstructed at all levels of their operation. By adopting the Digital Education Action Plan (2021-2027) on 30 September 2020\, the EU targets a high-quality\, accessible and inclusive digital education supporting the Member States’ entry into a digital era. Implementing learning and training have been considered key factors to allow modern societies and economies to face the challenges of globalisation and technological progress. Developing digital skills has become essential in this framework to foster lifelong learning and reduce inequalities. By 2030\, university students worldwide should reach 414 million\, and to meet their needs\, Universities must deliver quality and relevant future-proof skills\, foster diversity and inclusion\, and promote and protect democratic practices\, fundamental rights and academic values (EE.UU 2021/C 66/01). \nYou can find more information here: Reinventing University: the Digital Challenge in Higher Education

SUMMARY:The Lived Experience of Supporting University Wellbeing
DESCRIPTION:As part of the HEA’s ongoing work on the progression of the Healthy Campus Charter and Framework and the National Student Mental Health and Suicide Prevention Framework we are running a project to capture the experience of implementing both these Frameworks and student and staff health and wellbeing through our project ‘The Lived Experience of Supporting University Wellbeing’. \n  \nWe are inviting a diverse range of staff in institutions to participate in this project to inform our work nationally on health and wellbeing\, including decision making and strategy. All staff members are invited to participate and can include those working in student services\, student health\, HR\, academic\, senior leadership and management\, administration\, professional\, students’ union\, facilities\, catering\, health and safety\, library staff\, sports officers to name just a few. \n  \nThe project will run over eight weeks Thursday April 25th to Thursday June 20th\, 2024.

SUMMARY:Workshop: connecting higher education\, teacher training and schools to advance education for the digital and green transitions
DESCRIPTION:This international peer learning workshop is organised by the OECD Higher Education Policy Team\, in collaboration with the European Commission and Ireland’s National Forum for the Enhancement of Teaching and Learning in Higher Education. The National Forum operates under the aegis of the Higher Education Authority (HEA) and is responsible for leading and advising on the enhancement of teaching and learning in Irish higher education. \nLearning from experiences in Ireland and internationally\, the workshop will examine two questions: \n\nHow can higher education support the integration of digital and green competencies in initial teacher education programmes and activities?\nHow can science communication contribute to fostering a more continual collaboration between teacher education institutions\, higher education and school practitioners?\n\nThe Education and Innovation Practice Community (EIPC)  \nThis workshop seeks to contribute to international peer learning in the Education and Innovation Practice Community (EIPC)\, which the European Commission’s Directorate-General for Education\, Youth\, Sport and Culture (Unit C.1 – Innovation and EIT) launched in partnership with the OECD (in late 2022). EIPC is a flagship initiative under the European Commission’s New European Innovation Agenda. Please click here to join the EIPC network.

SUMMARY:Assessment and Feedback in Placement Settings
DESCRIPTION:If you are involved in placement\, you may have wondered about how best to assess student performance when what’s involved is so different from typical academic activities where students attend and engage in lectures\, practicals\, tutorials\,etc. You may already have students reflecting on their work or may even be considering incorporating reflection for the first time. However\, there are often additional challenges associated with work placement in that students are remote from you as opposed to typical assessment where you can more easily engage with them. Have you ever wondered what the students’ views on assessment and feedback in work placement settings are? \nIn this seminar\, we will get some global\, national and local insights into the challenges and solutions to conducting assessment and providing feedback in a work placement setting. Firstly\, we will hear from Professor Rola Ajjawi about some of the challenges faced within the Australian setting together with thoughts on solutions that have worked. Secondly\, Dr. Geraldine O’Neill will discuss findings from a wide ranging study that she conducted with students\, host organisations and academics. Thirdly\, Dr Tom O’Mahony and Catherine Murphy will discuss some of the results of research they are conducting into enhancing feedback and assessment in work placement modules in MTU and will share data gathered data from 270 students. \nIn conclusion\, options for next steps will be shared with all those interested in redesigning their assessment and feedback approach to work placement. \nThis seminar is funded as part of MTU’s Strategic Alignment of Teaching and Learning Enhancement Funding 2022-23 (SATLE 2022-23) with coordination and support from the Teaching and Learning Unit (TLU). \nRegistration \nhttps://www.eventbrite.ie/e/assessment-feedback-in-placement-settings-challenges-solutions-tickets-745949955397?aff=oddtdtcreator

SUMMARY:The John Kelly Award for UDL in Further & Higher Education
DESCRIPTION:The John Kelly Award for Universal Design in Further and Higher Education recognises the innovative practice of teaching staff in further and higher education engaging with the Universal Design for Learning (UDL) framework to deliver a more inclusive learning experience for their students. The award aims to celebrate and promote the use of UDL in further education and higher education settings. \nThe awards are targeted at practitioners who have demonstrated their emergent commitment to UDL by undertaking the Digital Badge for Universal Design in Teaching & Learning and making exciting changes to their practice above and beyond their initial redesign. \nAfter a successful relaunch last year\, applications are now open for the Individual award category. To give our institutions and organisations the opportunity to further embed and develop UDL within their contexts\, the Collaborative award category will not be running this year but will return in 2024. \nThe awards are named after the late Professor John Kelly\, former Registrar of UCD and founding Chair of AHEAD in recognition of his pioneering work. John sadly passed away last year. We were delighted that he could address the audience in person at the awards final in October 2022. \nRegister for the John Kelly Awards 2023 Online Final Event \nSHORTLISTED FINALISTS 2023\nFurther Education and Training\n\nMarie Collins CDETB\nAoife Keaney NLN\nGeraldine Kyle KCETB\nCelia O’Shea Kerry College\n\nHigher Education\n\nKate Dunne ATU Connemara\nPauline Logue ATU\nJenny Moffett RCSI\nTrish O’Connell ATU Galway City\n\nTHE JOHN KELLY AWARDS FINAL 2023; SUSTAINING MOMENTUM IN UNIVERSAL DESIGN IN TERTIARY EDUCATION\nIn celebration of the John Kelly awards 2023\, UCD Access & Lifelong Learning are excited to invite all those interested in universal design in tertiary education across Ireland to our online final event on Tuesday November 14th from 10:00 to 13:15. \nThe event will provide a platform for the 2023 finalists to present on their implementations of UDL and their plans for the future.
