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. Our international panel of experts will be scoring the presentations to identify this year’s winners. \nThe event will include a keynote presentation from Dr Loui Lord Nelson on Sustaining Momentum in Universal Design\, informed by her experiences as the first UDL coordinator for a school district which saw her acting as a point person to support teachers\, administrators\, and district leaders in their understanding of and implementation of UDL. \nFollowing the keynote presentation there will be a panel discussion between Dr Loui Lord Nelson and former John Kelly Award winners; Dr Maureen Haran\, Dr Niamh Plunkett\, Dr Anita Byrne\, facilitated by Lisa Padden from UCD.

SUMMARY:DCU Futures Conference: Integrating transversal skills in higher education
DESCRIPTION:Within the context of a rapidly changing world\, the increasing frequency of graduate career mobility\, and the rise of artificial intelligence\, a compelling rationale for the vital importance of transversal skills in higher education emerges. However\, questions regarding how to define\, prioritise\, develop\, evaluate and evidence such skills\, as well as the challenge of doing this within and across multiple disciplines\, are both complex and multifaceted.

SUMMARY:Climbing the UDL Ladder: Building a Culture of Inclusion in Higher Education: "Overcoming Obstacles to Enhance and Sustain UDL Collaboration in Further and Higher Education"
DESCRIPTION:This year Atlantic Technological University (ATU) and Munster Technological University (MTU) have united to deliver a national UDL conference. The conference not only explores a whole institute approach to UDL but draws on learning and reflection from the HEA Path 4 Phase 1 Project in which both universities partnered on a work package considering leadership approaches to supporting UD.  With increased evidence available on the effectiveness of UDL creating a more inclusive environment across classrooms in Further & Higher Education\, this year we explore UDL from three key perspectives: Leaders\, academics\, and student services. \nConference Themes\nI. UDL in Leadership: Opportunities and challenges in supporting sustainable inclusive learning in further and higher education.  \nPresenters will guide conference participants through an examination of development processes (be it evidenced or aspirational) recognising the importance of supports for programme teams when designing programmes of study that considers the variability of the student body. By promoting the empowerment of staff and learners\, educational leaders can build cohesive and resilient learning environments that support sustainable inclusion. \nII. Furthering UDL in the classroom: An academic perspective on overcoming obstacles.  \nPresentations will address alternative pathways to success which remove potential barriers making learning goals attainable. This discourse will consider a positive learning environment with flexibility built from the onset be it based in evidence or recommended\, ensuring that flexibility\, accessibility and learner voice and choice are built into all approaches to teaching and learning. \nIII. Empowering the inclusive student experience: Student Services approaches.  \nRequested are presentations that showcase the promotion of removing barriers to education by student support services who are key players in this process. These presentations address a whole systems educational design as a driver in relation to student wellbeing. Innovative approaches to student support are most welcomed. \nConference Keynote Speaker – Dara Ryder  \nDara Ryder is Chief Executive Officer of AHEAD\, having previously managed AHEAD’s digital presence and developed a suite of online CPD programmes relating to inclusive practice in his role as Digital Media and eLearning Manager there. \nAfter graduating from Queens University in 2005\, Dara joined Dun Laoghaire College of Further Education as a lecturer\, where he became interested in inclusive education when working first-hand with students with disabilities in his classroom.  When the opportunity arose in 2008\, he joined AHEAD where he has been working ever since on creating inclusive environments in education and employment for people with disabilities. \nFor further information and to register for the event please see eventbrite link below.

SUMMARY:Designing Learning Outcomes for Labs
DESCRIPTION:The ability to deliver effective laboratories in higher education came under sharp focus during the pandemic with the move to online teaching and learning. Prior to this move\, the department of Multidisciplinary Engineering Education in the University of Sheffield had re-examined their approach to the provision of labs across engineering programmes. As a result they developed a new model for lab delivery\, one that included rigorous development of learning outcomes for the labs\, with a focus on the cross disciplinary nature of practical engineering skills. During the pandemic they found that these changes facilitated a somewhat smoother transition of labs to the online mode than may otherwise have been expected. \nIn this workshop Prof Andrew Garrard and Dr Adam Funnell will outline their experiences of refocusing the labs within the engineering programmes in the University of Sheffield\, and what worked and what didn’t during the pandemic. As part of the workshop\, you will be guided through the process of developing effective learning outcomes for your labs that are situated within the wider context of the module and the associated programme. You will also be facilitated in the development of lab types that can be used both to achieve different types of learning outcomes and different modes of lab delivery.  \nThis event has been funded by the National Forum for the Enhancement of Teaching and Learning in Higher Education \nClick here to register \nPlease note that this is an in-person event.
