SUMMARY:Re-imagining Assessment Workshop: Creating Feedback Opportunities within the Curriculum - Leveraging time to maximise the impact\, A Masterclass with Dr Edd Pitt
DESCRIPTION:In this active workshop\, delegates will work through a series of tasks designed to get them to interrogate their own assessment and feedback practice. In particular\, we will focus upon how we can create opportunities within the ‘contact time’ we have with students to afford assessment and feedback to be seen as part of the fabric and culture of the learning experience. The workshop seeks to help practitioners identify where their curricula might have the potential to afford multiple opportunities for both evaluative and consequential feedback. Crucially the workshop will focus upon harnessing the power of the classroom that delegates are engaged in within their day-to-day practice to mitigate the need for wholescale changes and extra workload.  LIMITED PLACES AVAILABLE.

SUMMARY:e-Proctoring in Theory and Practice: A review
DESCRIPTION:Remote e-proctoring was an established practice in some specific contexts prior to the COVID pandemic; however\, with the onset of the pandemic and the ensuing need to deliver alternative and online assessment procedures\, e-proctoring has become a very topical issue and has been discussed\, trialled and implemented widely both nationally and internationally. In this webinar\, Professor Paul Giller will present some of the findings from his report\, commissioned by QQI and endorsed by the National Academic Integrity Network\, titled ‘E-proctoring in theory and practice: a review’. Professor Giller’s report\, reviewing the literature\, identifying the various approaches taken\, highlighting the advantages and constraints inherent in e-proctoring\, discussing the issues that arise and offering some recommendations for its use may act as a welcome advisory resource for practitioners\, policy makers\, education developers and others in educational institutions in Ireland.  Professor Giller also describes both some successful and less successful case studies and analyses some possible reasons for these outcomes.

SUMMARY:Transform EDU Week Event 5: Developing Sustainability Literate Graduates – Adapting the UN Sulitest to Classroom and Aligning the Curriculum to the SDGs
DESCRIPTION:Universities have been mandated under SDG 4.7.1 to develop sustainability literature graduates. By sustainability literacy\, we refer to the knowledge\, skills\, and mindsets that help compel an individual to become deeply committed to building a sustainable future (Décamps\, 2017). \nIn this webinar we explore the transformative nature of education for sustainability and underpinning reflective pedagogy. We outline a whole-of-university approach to ensuring that it is embedded across the curricula. \nWe highlight approaches to measurement and evaluation and showcase the use of the UN’s sustainability literacy test or SULITEST www.sulitest.org with reflective practice in contextualising sustainability literacy across different disciplines.

SUMMARY:Transform EDU Week Event 4: Contract Cheating – Valuing Teaching\, Learning and Education
DESCRIPTION:Contract cheating represents a challenge to the academic integrity of the educational system. Although one single solution to contract cheating does not exist\, the importance of an educative approach is recognised to ensure that students benefit from the learning opportunities offered to them. \nThis lead presentation for the Transform-EDU Project held during Valuing Ireland’s Teaching & Learning Week will review the characteristics of contract cheating\, including how educators can recognise breaches. The presentation will also consider opportunities available for educators to mitigate the risks of students succumbing to contract cheating\, including how this topic can be taught to students and how preventative measures can be put into place. Time will be available for questions and discussion.

SUMMARY:Transform EDU Week Event 2 – Education for Citizenship and Community Engagement
DESCRIPTION:Our key note presentation will focus on the role of Higher Education in developing society though engagement with civic society (third sector). A key function of Technological Universities is to serve the community and public interest by (i) developing strong social and cultural links with the community in the region in which its campuses are located\, and (ii) fostering effective relationships with organisations involved in regional development – contributing to economic\, cultural\, social and scientific development of the State. This webinar will focus on how universities can contribute to inclusive\, sustainable and empowered communities by educating young people to participate actively in civil society. \nWe will also provide an overview of a new Active Citizenship module that aims to educate students in key concepts related to citizenship; encourage students to get actively involved in their communities to achieve personal development; and to further civic goals. The module is influenced by thought-leaders\, including Raghuram Rajan\, author of the Third Pillar\, The Revival of Community in a Polarised World\, Paul Collier John Kay\, authors of Greed is Dead: Politics after Individualism \nThe Transform EDU team will also provide an overview of findings from case-study research on civic engagement and community development in South Dublin.

SUMMARY:Transform EDU Week Event 1 – Developing a Transformative Education Framework for Higher Education
DESCRIPTION:Transform-EDU aims to place transformative learning centre-stage in higher education. The project has focused on innovative approaches to learning where elements of structured programmes\, co and extra-curricular events are purposefully integrated to create the rich learning environments that are required to foster transformative learning. \nWe present a framework that recognises that\, whilst learning outcomes are mostly achievable in structured discipline-specific academic curricula\, 21st Century Graduate profiles demanded by employers are dynamic\, requiring agile learning environments to produce graduates who meet skills demanded by enterprise. \nWe highlight TU Dublin’s Student Transformative Learning Record (STLR) as a means of capturing and authenticating transformative learning that takes place\, under the following competencies: civil knowledge and skills\, global culture competence\, health and wellbeing development\, leadership\, teamwork\, research and innovation competence building. We highlight the student and staff voice during our event. We outline examples of co-curricular events that support exposure\, integration and transformation.
