New for 2024, the eSTEeM, Learning and Teaching, and Equality, Diversity, Inclusivity and Accessibility (EDIA) Teams are bringing together their webinar series under the STEMinar Series banner. Keep up to date on the STEMinar Series by visiting the STEMinar Series website (intranet only).
In response to the group tuition policy, on a level 3 maths module we designed a comprehensive list of about 60 tutor-led cluster-level tutorials to replace the standard 7 tutorials per group in a cost neutral way. However, GTP implementation at the university level turned out to be challenging and the policy became unpopular among tutors due to concerns about complicated timetabling and logistical issues associated with shared online rooms.
To address tutor well-being and timetable practicality on M303, we gave each of our tutors an individual, personal teaching room that was accessible to the whole student cohort.
We will talk about how we employed Roger's Diffusion of Innovation and Davis’s Technology Acceptance Model to analyse the adoption of the GTP by our tutors and explain how the use of individual, personal rooms may mitigate the potential negative impact on tutor well-being of changes in tuition strategy.
M250 now offers unlimited automated feedback on programming assignments. We review the kinds of feedback we offer, some differences in student use of this feedback and insights into the kinds of errors they make, students’ reported use of these facilities, and the impact on student results.
This session is open to OU staff, to sign-up please visit the registration form.
