Session summary
This workshop session will showcase some examples of teaching excellence from early career teachers, providing suggestions regarding what constitutes good practice across both more discursive and technical subject disciplines. Participants will be encouraged to consider examples of teaching excellence in their own teaching. It is often important to be able to demonstrate teaching excellence in academic job applications, promotion applications and when applying for different levels of HEA fellowship. Hence, participants will be provided with guidance on the collation of evidence of good teaching practice.
Sessions aims
- To provide examples of everyday excellence in teaching by early career colleagues.
- To encourage participants to think of examples of excellence in their own teaching.
- To provide guidance on how teaching excellence evidence can be collated for career progression.
