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/

SUMMARY:Life Long Learning in Pharmacy 2021
DESCRIPTION:The National Forum is delighted to support the upcoming Life Long Learning in Pharmacy International Conference 2021. This will be a virtual conference\, taking place from Sunday 27th to Wednesday 30th June 2021\, hosted from the Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland\, Dublin. \nThe LLLP conferences bring together international and national colleagues to share their interest and research in the area of pharmacy education and professional development. The conference facilitates participant access to high quality educational programs\, internationally significant research and development\, and world-renowned leaders in the field. \nThe 2021 conference will be a particularly special one\, because the opportunity to connect at LLLP 2020 was missed due to COVID-19. The experiences and learnings delegates will have to share from the past year will guarantee rich conference content. Added to this\, there will be the special connection\, collaboration and community\, which have now become hallmarks of the LLLP conferences. Delegates who have previously attended LLLP will have the opportunity to build on established relationships with international colleagues as well as form new connections. New participants will find a warm welcome into a new international network. \nFor more information on the conference keynotes\, programme\, key dates and registration\, see here.

SUMMARY:Webinar: Developing Enabling Policies for Digital and Open Teaching and Learning
DESCRIPTION:Taking place on Thursday 10 June 2021\, this webinar will share developments and invite feedback on the project to develop a new National Forum ‘Guide to Developing Enabling Policies for Digital and Open Teaching & Learning’. \nInstitutional policy-making can\, and should\, engage individuals across the organisation; policy-making is not the remit of senior managers only. This is especially so when the subject of those policies are topics related to digital and open teaching and learning (T&L)\, e.g. Lecture Recording\, Virtual Classrooms\, Assessment\, Open Educational Resources. \nIn this webinar\, as in institutional policy-making\, we would like to encourage as wide a range of people as possible to join the conversation. This might include people who are already involved in developing digital\, open and/or T&L policies\, as well as those who would like to be involved in the consultation or development of such policies\, or policy briefs\, procedures\, guidelines. All higher education staff and students are invited to participate. \nThe new National Forum ‘Guide to Developing Enabling Policies for Digital and Open Teaching & Learning’ is currently being developed\, drawing on wide consultation including workshops that took place across the sector in 2019\, as well as conversations with many individuals who have been developing and updating institutional policies since March 2020\, taking into account the new context of remote/online T&L. \nDuring this webinar\, the National Forum will share key aspects of the proposed guide and invite your feedback on important questions\, including: \n\nWhat key policy areas (in Digital/Open Teaching & Learning) should be addressed in the guide?\nWhat content and tools would you expect to find in the guide\, in order for it to be most useful?\nWho is involved in policy development/consultation at your institution or organisation?\nWhat are the biggest challenges for policy development at your institution or organisation?\n\nWebinar speakers: \n\nCatherine Cronin\, Strategic Education Developer\, National Forum\nChloe Power\, Student Associate Intern\, National Forum\nNiamh Brennan\, Programme Manager for Research Informatics\, Trinity College Dublin\nTony Murphy\, Head of Quality Enhancement and Innovation in Teaching and Learning\, Dublin Business School\nSarah O’Toole\, Educational Developer\, Limerick Institute of Technology\n\nRegistration for this webinar is available here. \nThis webinar is part of the National Forum’s 2021 National Webinar Series.

SUMMARY:That is the Future for the Assessment of Learning through Final Examinations? Part 2
DESCRIPTION:This National Forum webinar\, open to the higher education community\, will focus on assessment and specifically\, alternatives to assessment of learning through final (terminal) examinations. It takes place from 12.30-13.30 on Friday 28 May. \nFor some time\, research analysing assessment in higher education has raised questions about the effectiveness and reliability of traditional final exam-based assessment. The closure of campuses in light of the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020 led to immediate changes in formative and summative assessment practices in higher education in Ireland\, with the cancellation of on-campus exams. Alternative assessment modes\, most of which were online\, were developed within a matter of weeks. This represented a sudden and critical challenge across the sector\, but it has also opened the opportunity for us collectively to revisit the rationale for\, and purposes of\, final exam-based assessment in our programmes. \nBuilding on the Part 1 on 06 May\, in this webinar we continue a national conversation about the future for the assessment of learning through final examinations. In this webinar\, we share a range of examples showcasing alternative assessments to exams. We will explore the theme of assessment for engagement\, and hear perspectives from students and staff\, senior managers and other stakeholders. We will consider the implications of continuing with final exams\, and in particular online exams which require proctoring. The issues arising from the use of online proctoring will be identified and discussed\, with experiences shared by staff and students who have experienced this mode of assessment. We consider assessment from the perspective of care\, and how the educational landscape post-Covid -19 can effectively address some of the negative experiences of assessment online and offline. The conversations from Part 1 and Part 2 will inform a National Forum Insight later this year. \nThis webinar will be chaired by Dr Áine Ní Shé\, Registrar & Vice President for Academic Affairs\, Munster Technological University – Cork\, and National Forum Board Member. \nSpeakers will be: \n\nIrene Hayden\, Lecturer – Department of Building and Civil Engineering\, Galway-Mayo Institute of Technology\nDr Brendan O’Connell\, Assistant Professor – School of English\, Trinity College Dublin\nDr Lisa Padden\, Project Lead – University for All\, UCD Access & Lifelong Learning\nDr Fiona O’Riordan\, Academic Developer\, & Rob Lowney\, Learning Technologist – Teaching Enhancement Unit\, Dublin City University\nDr Adrienne Fleming\, Department of Science\, School of Science and Computing\, TU Dublin\nStudent speaker to be confirmed\n\nYou can register for this webinar here. \nThis webinar is part of a National Webinar Series taking place throughout 2021.

SUMMARY:Towards a National Understanding of Agile Curriculum
DESCRIPTION:This National Forum webinar\, open to the entire higher education community\, will focus on the key features of an agile and innovative curriculum. The concept of agile curricula has come to prominence in recent years\, not least through the HEA’s recent Human Capital Initiative Pillar 3\, which has seen a Government investment of €197 million over the 5-year period\, 2020 to 2024. Aligning with the significant related work on which institutions are now embarking\, this webinar will begin a national conversation on how we understand the concept of an agile curriculum and what can be learned and shared across related projects and initiatives at national level. \nHCI Pillar 3 (Innovation and Agility) has resulted in 22 large-scale collaborative projects being funded across the higher education sector. Through projects recommended under this pillar\, ‘innovative methods of teaching and delivery will be promoted\, so that learners will benefit from improved quality and more engaging ways of learning on enterprise-focused courses’. HCI Pillar 3 emphasises agility and expresses the strategic aim of government to enable institutions ‘to anticipate\, understand and respond to emerging skills needs (…)\, to deliver new courses or adapt existing courses\, so that institutions can more quickly respond to emerging developments in technology and enterprise’.

SUMMARY:Webinar on "The INDEx Survey: A Challenging and Rewarding Journey"
DESCRIPTION:This webinar charts the story behind the planning\, development and implementation of the Irish National Digital Experience (INDEx) Survey. Participants will have an opportunity to engage directly with Ireland’s National Forum for the Enhancement of Teaching and Learning in Higher Education\, co-ordinators of the survey\, as they share their experiences of this first for Irish higher education. \nThis event is designed for anyone interested in the INDEx Survey process overall\, and particularly for those who may be considering running a similar survey in their own country or education institution. \n24\,484 students and 4\,445 staff who teach at 32 higher education institutions in Ireland completed the INDEx Survey which set out to explore and capture the digital experiences of students and staff who teach\, highlighting what makes a difference to them and providing an evidence base to inform future decision-making and enhancement of teaching and learning in Irish higher education. \nThe survey was a success\, and indeed made possible\, due to focused\, national\, collaborative efforts. In this webinar\, National Forum staff will describe the process of collaboration and partnership behind the INDEx Survey. They will also discuss the narrative behind the results\, conclusions and key learnings that were published earlier this year in the INDEx Survey Findings Report. \nThis event coincides with the recent publication of the National Forum briefing paper on the INDEx Survey process Implementing the Irish National Digital Experience (INDEx) Survey: A Challenging and Rewarding Journey. Attendees are invited to read this briefing paper before attending the webinar (downloadable from https://www.teachingandlearning.ie/publication/implementing-the-irish-national-digital-experience-index-survey-a-challenging-and-rewarding-journey). \nPlease note this event will run from 12.00 to 13.00 hours (Irish time) on Wednesday 25 November 2020. All are welcome to participate. \nClick here to register.

SUMMARY:Work-based Assessment: Getting to Grips with Policies and Practices
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The ‘Work-based Assessment: Getting to Grips with Policies and Practices’ symposium marks the culmination of a National Forum\, and Quality and Qualifications Ireland (QQI) partnership that has led to a series of events throughout 2020 titled ‘Work-based Assessment: Exploring Critical Issues and Sharing Solutions’. The symposium will run from 10am- 3pm on 19 November next. \nThis event will build on learning from conversations that have taken place during and around the series’ preceding webinars and provide an opportunity to consider actions for sectoral change. It will draw together international and national experts\, key resources\, case studies and use a series of interactive approaches to interrogate this topic across the range of different work-based learning contexts. \nThe speaker line-up features two international guest speakers. Dr Norah McRae of the University of Waterloo\, Canada\, will focus on ‘The Global Work-integrated Learning Framework: Understanding the context for assessment discussions’ . Dr Rola Ajjawi of Deakin University\, Australia\, will explore ‘The Challenges of Authentic and Aligned Assessment in Complex Work Contexts: Ways forward for policy and practice’ . The main guest speaker from the Irish context is Dr Mary Kelly of Hibernia College\, Dublin. Dr Kelly will speak to ‘Work-based Assessment of Competence to Practice – A Holistic Look at Assessment of Occupational Competence in the Teaching Profession’. \nTo date\, the two webinars in this series attracted over 500 registrations in all\, with each webinar involving representatives from across further and higher education. In addition to inputs from the National Forum\, QQI\, and the event series facilitator\, Dr Geraldine O’Neill\, the webinars involved valuable contributions from representatives of Trinity College Dublin\, City of Dublin Education and Training Board\, Accounting Technicians Ireland\, University of Limerick\, and Mayo\, Sligo Leitrim Education and Training Board. \nA full symposium schedule will be circulated within the next two weeks.[/vc_column_text][vc_btn title=”Click here to register” color=”green” i_icon_fontawesome=”fa fa-pencil-square-o” add_icon=”true” link=”url:https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eventbrite.ie%2Fe%2Fwork-based-assessment-national-symposium-tickets-125471991103||target:%20_blank|”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] \nPast Webinars\nWebinar 1: Exploring Critical Issues and Sharing Solutions \nWebinar 2: Exploring the Challenge of Consistency \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
