  • Teaching and Learning Conference 2021: Teaching in the Spotlight: What Is the Future for HE Curricula? On-Demand Session Abstracts 6-8 July 2021
    Teaching and Learning Conference 2021: Teaching in the spotlight: What is the future for HE curricula? On-demand session abstracts 6-8 July 2021 5Ps: An incremental innovation Dericka Frost and Janet Turley, University of the Sunshine Coast Whilst the move to technology-enabled learning and teaching [TELT] during 2020 transformed higher education course delivery, it exacerbated the digital divide. Students with low confidence, limited internet access, bandwidth and inadequate hardware became even less visible. 5Ps is an innovative student-focused study strategy developed in response to this transition in one pathways program course at an Australian regional university. 5Ps provides inexperienced students with a formula and an explicit step-by-step guide, potentially strengthening their academic self-efficacy and independence regardless of technological inequities. A 40,000 strong force for sustainable development: Affecting change whilst enhancing employability through applied research and the Sustainable Development Goals Dr Jennifer O'Brien, University of Manchester Students at the University of Manchester represent a 40,000-strong force for potential change who want to make a difference. This presentation will critically discuss how we are harnessing the power of our students to affect change through their assessment to the benefit of sustainable development and their employability. We are deploying Education for Sustainable Development in a Living Lab approach framed around the Sustainable Development Goals. The University Living Lab equips and empowers our students with the skills and confidence to affect real change for sustainable development through interdisciplinary applied research projects required by external partners. A brave new world: Has the global pandemic broken the boundaries of tradition and reformed assessment in STEM? Dr Laura Roberts and Dr Joanne Berry, Swansea University For centuries STEM disciplines have relied on traditional, on-site exams to drive learning and knowledge.
