HERDSA Webinar - The ecology of open education and becoming ‘incrementally open’.
27th October 2023 - 12.00–1.00 pm AEST. (11.00AM–12.00 pm AEDT)

Hosted by HERDSA Branch Queensland. Dr Adrian Stagg presents: Engaging with open educational practices (OEP) can seem daunting for staff, who may feel it represents an ‘all or nothing’ proposition for teaching and learning. In this webinar, OEP will be contextualised and nuanced within the institutional ecology, and practical strategies supporting a transition toward openness will be explored. The underpinning rationale and purposes of open education inform these approaches, whilst also providing a measure for evaluation.

The webinar is informed by recent PhD research that took a mixed methods approach to deeply examining three Australian university case sites. Bronfenbrenner’s Ecology of Human Development (1979) acted as the conceptual framework to map influencing forces across the institution and sector that impact on manifestations of OEP by privileging context and the thick description provided by the participants. The resulting Ecology of Open Educational Practice will be of interest to university leadership, OEP advocates, learning designers and technologists, lecturers, librarians, and any other staff either supporting or enacting open education at their institution.

In line with the idea of ‘incrementally open’, the webinar will be practically useful for those interested in taking their first steps into OEP, as well as current practitioners.

HERDSA Webinar: Ngā hau e whā o Tāwhirimatea - Embedding mātauranga Māori in tertiary education
Thursday November 9, 2023 11.00am AEST or 1pm NZT

Dr Matiu Rātima is a former Senior Lecturer in Mātauranga Māori for teacher education at the University of Canterbury. He has a PhD from the University of Waikato, and his research interests include the development of proficiency in te reo Māori, culturally responsive teaching, and the effectiveness of professional development for the cultural competence of teachers.

In 2022, Matiu led a team of educational researchers, tertiary teachers, and teacher educators to produce a free online guide for tertiary teachers entitled
Ngā Hau e Whā o Tāwhirimātea: Culturally Responsive Teaching and Learning for the Tertiary Sector
This guide has been viewed over 10 thousand times and downloaded close to 4000 times all over the world and is available for you to download at no cost (see the herdsa website link below)
In this interactive session Matiu will facilitate a discussion designed to excavate some of the opportunities and anxieties that have arisen along with the surge in prominence of Māori history and mātauranga as cornerstones of responsible, responsive and Treaty led education in Aotearoa (NZ). For participants to get the best from the session you are asked to read the guide online and come ready to ask a question or two for the zoom hui to 'wānanga' (analyse, discuss, debate). Please email your questions ahead of time to matiu.ratima5@gmail.com

If time allows Matiu will invite impromptu questions towards the end of the session.

New Senior and Principal Fellowship support programmes
1 November 2023

Advance HE is delighted to announce the new launch of new Senior and Principal Fellowship support programmes. These programmes for Australasian colleagues use the Professional Standards Framework for Teaching and Supporting Learning in Higher Education (PSF 2023). The PSF 2023 is a globally-recognised framework for benchmarking success within HE teaching and learning support.

The programmes may be of particular interest to those in higher education providers that do not currently have Advance HE accredited provision or the capacity to deliver for these categories of fellowship.

These specialist, virtual programmes, will run for 12 weeks and include guidance, dedicated writing sessions, and review of full a draft PSF 2023 application with one to one feedback. An experienced PSF 2023 Consultant will lead each programme, supporting individuals to achieve either Senior or Principal Fellowship.

Invitation to participate in research on inclusive assessment of practice-based learning in the health professions

Are you involved in practice-based learning in the health professions? We are exploring what inclusive assessment of practice-based learning for health professionals might look like. We want to know what you think the necessary skills and capabilities for graduates are.

We are seeking a wide range of opinions from those involved in practice-based learning – clinical or field placements, workplace learning, professional experiences, and simulation. The people we are interested in hearing from includes but is not limited to clinical supervisors, placement co-ordinators, directors of education in host organisations, and accreditation bodies across Australia and New Zealand.

Participation initially involves completing an anonymous online survey, and is entirely voluntary. The survey will take approximately 15 minutes of your time.

Take the survey here: https://researchsurveys.deakin.edu.au/jfe/form/SV_5nZZGfihbuhYRnM

Respondents will be entered into a lucky draw to win one of three $100 vouchers. This research has received Deakin University ethics approval HAE 23-096
