The Staff Development Collection

This collection contains books and materials specially selected to support those teaching in a Higher Education environment. Topics include:

Research methods in education
Supporting students
Adult learning
Plagiarism
E-moderating
Assertiveness at work

The collection can be browsed from the comfort of the Collaboration Area or borrowed from the Library in the normal way. You can search for 'Staff Development Collection' in the Library catalogue to see a list of current titles, some of which are also available from the normal shelving.

The collection is accessible during Teaching Grid opening hours, even if the rest of the Collaboration Area is booked for an event.
