Why flexible learning? Educational design Planning principles Learning resource principles ... Phase 4 - Review and revision TEDI Site All of UQ Effective Teaching and Learning conferences The Effective Teaching and Learning at University conferences provide an opportunity for university teachers to exchange ideas about their practice and reflections on teaching and learning at university. History The series of conferences started with TEDI's In-House Conference on Teaching and Learning, which took place in 1994, 1995 and 1996. These conferences used keynote speakers only from the University of Queensland, papers were solely by University of Queensland staff, and all participants came from this university. In 1997, for the first time, the In-House Conference had keynote speakers from outside the University of Queensland, but all other speakers were from this University, as were all participants. From 1998, the conference has been more widely advertised and aimed at a broader group of participants and presenters. Keynote speakers have been invited both from this university and from elsewhere in Australia, paper presenters come from most Australian universities and some from overseas; participants come from most Australian universities and some overseas. While the conferences since 1998 have been advertised nationally and, to a lesser extent, internationally, their primary target for participation has been university teaching staff from local universities. As a further step in this direction it was agreed that the 2001 and 2002 Conferences would be located at the Queensland University of Technology, Griffith University would host the 2003 and 2004 conferences, while The University of Queensland would host the 2005 and 2006 conferences. All three universities will join in hosting and promoting the conference each year.

86. Effective Teaching effective teaching should be thought of as helping students learn, Use effectiveteaching techniques. State what should be learned here. http://www.uab.edu/uasomume/cdm/teaching.htm

t Premises of Teaching Selecting the Instructional Format Premises of Teaching There is no one right teaching style. Your teaching style is an extension of your personality, thus some techniques will appeal to you more than others. Teaching may appear easier and "more natural" for some than for others, but there are no "born teachers" who don’t need to improve or others who can never improve regardless of effort. Good teachers work at being good and are constantly looking for ways to improve. Not all techniques are effective in every setting, in every situation of the same setting, and with every group. A new approach should not be tried only because it is new , nor rejected for the same reason. Selecting the Instructional Format No one instructional format is best for all course objectives. Learning can often be enhanced by providing the instructional process through a variety of formats. Since a major goal of Curriculum 2000 is to help students become seekers of information, not merely receptacles of information, instructional formats should be selected with this goal in mind. Since using the same format throughout can cause students to become weary of the approach, if not the content, course directors are encouraged to provide as much variation in instructional format as is educationally appropriate. Some instructional formats are as follows:

SOURCE: McKeachie, W.J. and Kaplan, Matthew (1996). "Persistent Problems in Evaluating College Teaching," AAHE Bulletin University of Mississippi Academic Affairs Reports ( http://cedar.olemiss.edu/depts/vc_academic_affairs/problems.html ) Adapted for NTLF June 1999. PERSISTENT PROBLEMS IN EVALUATING COLLEGE TEACHING: Student ratings, classroom observations, portfolios, appraisal interviews . . . . they all could, and should, be used more effectively. by William J. McKeachie and Matthew Kaplan The idea that students might routinely evaluate the teaching they experience in college was a hard sell on most campuses; student ratings were usually introduced with a good deal of struggle. The controversies over the years caused student ratings to become the most extensively studied aspect of collegiate education. Now, after fifty years of research and more than 2,000 journal articles, there's little reason to doubt that the procedure can provide valid and useful information for both faculty members and administrators. Even today, though, student evaluations seldom make an optimal contribution to improving either teaching or personnel decisions. One reason may be that they've become banal: Students and faculty treat them as a routine, giving them little thought. Another reason is that we forget what we've learned about how to make them most effective. Whatever the case, student and faculty time gets taken up in an exercise producing only mediocre results.

Overview of Classroom Processes Last Modified: December 2, 1997 Courses Home Page Carroll's Model of School Learning In 1963, John Carroll proposed a model to account for school learning. His major premise was that school learning is a function of time. To be more specific, Carroll proposed that School Learning = f(time spent/time needed) Carroll defined time spent as a function of i.e., resulting from or composed of) opportunity and perseverance . The measure he proposed for opportunity was allocated time or the amount of time the classroom teacher made available for school learning. The measure Carroll proposed for perseverance was engagement rate or the percentage of the allocated time that students were actually on task. Allocated time was multiplied by engagement rate to produce engaged time or time on task which is defined as the number of minutes per school day that students were actually engaged in school work. Carroll defined time needed as a function of aptitude, ability to understand instruction, and quality of instruction . By aptitude Carroll meant the ability to learn academic material. One measure of this variable would be IQ . By ability to understand instruction, Carroll meant the preparedness of the student for understanding the specific material to be learned. Bloom, a colleague of Carroll's at the University of Chicago, later proposed a measure of

91. GDC Effective Techniques Article effective Techniques for teaching Highly Gifted VisualSpatial Learners The following strategies have been found to be effective in teaching children http://www.gifteddevelopment.com/Articles/EffectiveTechniques.html

Effective Techniques for Teaching Highly Gifted Visual-Spatial Learners Linda Kreger Silverman, Ph.D. Gifted Development Center Denver, Colorado Western and Eastern philosophies and cultures provide dramatic examples of these differences. Western thought is sequential, temporal, analytic; Eastern thought is spatial and holistic (Bolen, 1979). Cause and effect sequences are stressed in Euro-American ideation, whereas synchronicity of unrelated events is appreciated from an Asian world view. Western languages are constructed out of non-meaningful elementsletters of the alphabet; Eastern languages traditionally have been composed of pictorial representations. Perhaps the greater facility of Asian children in the visual-spatial domain can be traced at least in part to the emphasis on visualization in the linguistic system. These different mental organizations appear to be innate. Although one can gain more facility with one or the other mode through learning, it is unlikely that a person with sequential dominance can learn to perceive the world in exactly the same way as an individual with spatial dominance or vice versa. Instead of trying to remake one or the other style of learning, we need to accept these inherent differences in perception, and appreciate their complementarity since we inhabit a spatial-temporal reality. When these differences are not understood, there is dissension; when they are honored, they enable an exchange of information that forms a more complete conception of reality than can be gained by either perspective in isolation.

Australian Vice-Chancellors' Committee (ACN 008 502 930) GUIDELINES FOR EFFECTIVE UNIVERSITY TEACHING APRIL 1993 Canberra COMMITMENT TO EFFECTIVE TEACHING Australian universities are a part of an internationally recognised community of higher education and as such have, in common with their international peers, a particular responsibility to create, preserve, evaluate, interpret and transmit knowledge. While other institutions in society also contribute to these same objectives, it is the special responsibility of universities to foster and preserve the scholarly values of search for truth, of curiosity, integrity and critical appraisal, and to nurture these values in their students. The AVCC sees diversity in functions, organisation and teaching as one of the chief strengths of the Australian university system. This is supported by the widely differing curricula offered in Australian universities. Effective teaching practice is sensitive to particular curricula in fostering those scholarly values. The AVCC sees teaching as a creative activity designed to foster students' learning, their ability and desire to undertake scholarly work, and their development as a whole person. Teaching draws on professional and disciplinary expertise of staff and is continually revitalised by research, scholarship, consultancy, or professional practice.

99. IMPROVING COLLEGE TEACHING lack the final answer to the question of what constitutes effective teaching.That may well be true, but the key ingredients of effective teaching are http://www.olemiss.edu/depts/vc_academic_affairs/improve.html

IMPROVING COLLEGE TEACHING Peter Seldin Teaching in colleges is marked by historic paradox: though institutions constantly talk up its importance, they evaluate faculty primarily on the basis of scholarly achievements outside the classroom. Teaching is what almost every professor does, but it seems to suffer from that very commonness. It occupies the greatest amount of most professors' time, but rarely operates at the highest level of competence. There seems to be an ingrained academic reluctance to regard teaching in the same way the profession regards every other set of skills: as something that can be taught. Professors who take painstaking care for method within their discipline of chemistry, history, or psychology, for example, all too often are unreflective when it comes to teaching. Some professors even regard teaching as so straightforward that it requires no special training. Others find it so personal and idiosyncratic that no training could ever meet its multiplicity of demands. But most share the common folk belief that teachers are born and not made. "He (or she) is a born teacher," is said of too many good teachers as a copout by those who aren't. And some good teachers fuel this belief by agreeing, "I guess I'm a good teacher. Things seem to go well in the classroom. The students say they like what I do. But I don't really know how I do it." In fact, the marginal truth in this belief applies no more to teaching than to any other profession. If there are born teachers, there are born physicians, born attorneys, and born engineers. Yet those who are naturally great at these professions invariably spend an unnatural amount of time acquiring skills and practicing in the vortex of intense competition. Potentially great teachers become great teachers by the same route: through conditioning mind, through acquiring skills, and through practicing amidst intense competition (Eble, 1988).
