This book was released on 2015 with total page 686 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: De toutes les fonctions assumées par les enseignants, celle qui suscite le plus d'appréhensions est probablement l'évaluation des apprentissages, en particulier dans le cadre d'une approche par compétences. Si l'on comprend d'entrée de jeu la difficulté d'évaluer de façon objective et équitable le niveau de maitrise des compétences attendues, on en mesure l'ampleur lorsqu'on tient compte de la diversité des contextes d'enseignement et des disciplines dans lesquelles s'exerce l'évaluation. L'évaluation est une phase essentielle du processus d'apprentissage. Davantage qu'une sanction au terme d'un cheminement, elle contribue à la fois à l'approfondissement des apprentissages et à la satisfaction des étudiants. Les auteurs du présent guide pratique proposent des outils pour faire aussi de l'évaluation un facteur de satisfaction professionnelle pour les enseignants. L'équipe réunie par Julie Lyne Leroux aborde l'évaluation du point de vue de l'enseignant, en lui suggérant une diversité de ressources qui lui permettront non seulement de résoudre ses difficultés, mais également de faire de l'évaluation un élément efficace de sa stratégie d'enseignement. Après une mise en contexte dressant un portrait de différentes approches évaluatives, les auteurs exposent une gamme de ressources et d'outils favorisant et facilitant l'évaluation des compétences. Grilles d'évaluation, cartes conceptuelles, formulation des questions et portfolio sont notamment abordés, en plus de dix défis de l'évaluation des compétences en enseignement supérieur, dont ceux liés à l'évaluation des travaux d'équipe, de la créativité, des attitudes professionnelles et à la reconnaissance des acquis extrascolaires.
Download or read book European Competence Standards for the Academic Training of Career Practitioners written by Christiane Schiersmann and published by Verlag Barbara Budrich. This book was released on 2016-08-15 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The citizens of Europe are facing increasingly complex challenges to their career development nowadays. Over the span of their lifetime, they need to manage their careers, and make numerous decisions concerning education, training and employment - decisions, which seriously impact their futures and their wellbeing. To prepare citizens for these challenges, and to support them in the progress, competent career practitioners are needed. But what kinds of career practitioners are we talking about? And what do they need to be able to do? How can the quality of their training be assured? This handbook introduces common European competence standards for the academic training of career practitioners in Europe, together with some proposals and examples, of how to implement and establish such competence standards in practice. More than 200 experts from all across Europe have contributed to the development of these shared standards of the Network for innovation in Career Guidance and Counselling in Europe (NICE). The standards are already being used in many countries for the development of degree programmes.

Praise for Understanding and Supporting Adult Learners "This timely book provides a clear road map for institutions to attract, retain, and graduate adult learners. It will provoke discussions among faculty and administrators on the best ways to serve and assess this important demographic."— John V.

The book's wonderfully insightful and provocative cases bring to life the real dilemmas facing adult learners and the institutions that support them. It provides an enlightened analysis of the issues and an effective framework for creating and improving programs that ensure the success of adult learners in higher education."— Tai Arnold, assistant vice president for academic programs, SUNY Empire State College "This book is a must-read for community college faculty and administrators.

Download or read book University Writing in Central and Eastern Europe Tradition Transition and Innovation written by Mădălina Chitez and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-09-10 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores specific issues related to academic writing provision in the post-communist countries in Eastern, Central and Southern Europe. Although they have different cultures and writing traditions, these countries share common features in what regards the development of higher education and research and encounter challenges different from Western European countries. Since academic writing as a discipline is relatively new in Eastern Europe, but currently plays an essential part in the development of higher education and the process of European integration, the volume aims to open discussion on academic writing in the region by addressing several issues such as the specific challenges in providing academic writing support at tertiary level in post-communist countries, the limitations and possibilities in implementing Western models of academic writing provision, or the complex interactions between writing in national languages and writing in a second language. Additionally, the book presents several recent initiatives and possible models for providing academic writing support in universities in the area. The important role of academic writing in English, a common feature in post-communist countries, is reflected in the sections which focus on writing in English as a foreign language, as well as on the impact of English upon national languages. The volume will be of interest to academic writing researchers and teachers and those involved in teaching academic writing at the tertiary level.
Download or read book Stepping up to the Second Year at University written by Clare Milsom and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-11-20 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Programmes in higher education tend to focus attention on the student’s first year (because of concerns about student transition and retention) and on their final year (because of student exiting for their future careers). The middle year(s) of programmes receive relatively little attention which can often lead to a slump in student development at a crucial point in their studies. Stepping up to the Second Year at University provides practical advice that can be implemented by staff throughout higher education institutions. Rather than providing a set of prescriptions to be slavishly implemented, it prompts practitioners to think constructively about curriculum design and delivery, and about maximising student potential within the context of their particular institution. Amongst the questions asked in this book are: In what way do students’ perceptions of their experience shift as they progress through the first two years of study? How do psychological factors bear on student engagement and performance in the second year? What in the second-year curriculum might need greater attention? How can the analysis of institutional data help? This book, builds on critiques existing international research on the mid-years experience and also features evidence from a significant new research project from Liverpool John Moores University, provides a number of starting points for institutions’ enhancement activities as they seek to make the experience of their students as rewarding as possible. It is a must read for institutional managers of higher academic programmes, higher education practitioners and anyone interested in the development of teaching at higher education level.

Download or read book The University and Its Disciplines written by Carolin Kreber and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2010-07-15 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: University teaching and learning take place within ever more specialized disciplinary settings, each characterized by its unique traditions, concepts, practices and procedures. It is now widely recognized that support for teaching and learning needs to take this discipline-specificity into account. However, in a world characterized by rapid change, complexity and uncertainty, problems do not present themselves as distinct subjects but increasingly within trans-disciplinary contexts calling for graduate outcomes that go beyond specialized knowledge and skills. This ground-breaking book highlights the important interplay between context-specific and context-transcendent aspects of teaching, learning and assessment. It explores critical questions, such as: What are the ‘ways of thinking and practicing’ characteristic of particular disciplines? How can students be supported in becoming participants of particular disciplinary discourse communities? Can the diversity in teaching, learning and assessment practices that we observe across departments be attributed exclusively to disciplinary structure? To what extent do the disciplines prepare students for the complexities and uncertainties that characterize their later professional, civic and personal lives? Written for university teachers, educational developers as well as new and experienced researchers of Higher Education, this highly-anticipated first edition offers innovative perspectives from leading Canadian, US and UK scholars on how academic learning within particular disciplines can help students acquire the skills, abilities and dispositions they need to succeed academically and also post graduation. Carolin Kreber is Professor of Teaching and Learning in Higher Education and the Director of the Centre for Teaching, Learning and Assessment at the University of Edinburgh

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book gathers the Proceedings of the 20th International Conference on Interactive Collaborative Learning (ICL2017), held in Budapest, Hungary on 27–29 September 2017. The authors are currently witnessing a significant transformation in the development of education. The impact of globalisation on all areas of human life, the exponential acceleration of technological developments and global markets, and the need for flexibility and agility are essential and challenging elements of this process that have to be tackled in general, but especially in engineering education. To face these current real-world challenges, higher education has to find innovative ways to quickly respond to them. Since its inception in 1998, this conference has been devoted to new approaches in learning with a focus on collaborative learning. Today the ICL conferences offer a forum for exchange concerning relevant trends and research results, and for sharing practical experience gained while developing and testing elements of new technologies and pedagogies in the learning context.
