Description
This workshop is one of the Developing Your Teaching workshops,
provision from the Student Education Development Team.
This course will take place on campus in person.
Critical evaluation is often seen as something that happens after a
module has run, or as part of formal review or research. In this
session, critical evaluation is reframed as an integral part of everyday
module development.
Drawing on the iterative design and evaluation of the Access to Leeds
Computer Science module, this session will explore how core pedagogic
principles, assumptions about students, evidence from teaching and
assessment, and professional judgement can be surfaced and used to
inform design decisions over time. The emphasis is not on replicating a
specific design, but on making evaluative thinking visible and adaptable
across different disciplines and teaching contexts.
This session will be of interest to colleagues involved in module and/or
assessment design, those interested in strengthening the link between
reflective teaching practice and evidence-informed change, those
considering professional recognition through their student education
practice, and Access to Leeds tutors.
In this session, participants will:
• explore what "critical evaluation" looks like in day-to-day module
development
• be introduced to a practical, transferable framework for critically
evaluating their own modules
• reflect on their own practice and identify existing evaluative
activities they may already be using but have not yet articulated as
"critical evaluation"
