Teaching Specialist positions: creating elite teachers or an academic under-class in Australia’s research-intensive Universities
- Date: Wed, 9 Sep 2020, 4:00 pm - 5:00 pm
- Location: Via Zoom
Teaching-specialist positions, with workloads between 60% - 100% of teaching and teaching-related duties, have become increasingly prevalent in the Australian academic workforce in the 21st century. These positions represented a worldwide trend towards the “fragmentation”, “unbundling”, “segmentation” and “specialisation” of academic work. This webinar presents research that used narrative and thematic history approaches based on publicly available documentary resources to examine the commitment to teaching quality in Australia’s publicly funded research-intensive universities (Go8). Critical analysis focused on globalisation, neoliberalism, New Public Management, and Australian Government higher education policy. Go8 universities claimed that they offered opportunities for scholarship and leadership, which suggested that they were of equal value and reward to teaching-research roles. This research sought to assess why Go8 universities adopted teaching specialist positions and whether they delivered the benefits that were claimed.

ACEN Webinar Series 2: Models and processes of post-practicum interventions
- Date: Tue, 17 Nov 2020, 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
- Location: Online
This webinar draws upon the projects across the two phases of the grant to suggest ways in which post-practicum interventions can be developed and enacted. Specifically, it will focus on the models of post-practicum interventions trialed in these projects and how specific teaching and learning strategies were used to augment those experiences to promote employability. The presentation of models and processes will offer participants some bases to consider what may work in their area of teaching.

ACEN Webinar Series 3: Engaging time-jealous students
- Date: Tue, 24 Nov 2020, 10:00 am - 12:00 pm
- Location: Online
Across the many projects within the two phases of this grant, the issue of student engagement, particularly focused and effortful participation became an enduring concern. It seems that contemporary students are not time poor (i.e. without time), but are, instead time jealous (i.e. needing to use their time effectively because of overlapping and competing priorities). As with learning, how students come to engage in, integrate and reconcile experiences provided by both university programs and workplaces, is central to the quality and extent of the outcomes of these experiences. Superficial or reluctant participation will lead to weak educational outcomes. Consequently, it is necessary to identify how best students can come to engage in these kinds of experiences in focused and effortful ways and, through though that, optimise the learning potential of these experiences.

ADEPT – Flexible modes of delivery: The Evolution of the Lecture (Workshop)
- Date: Mon, 14, 9:30 am - Tue, 15 Dec 2020, 11:00 am
- Location: Via Zoom - details to be sent upon registration
This ADEPT module will provide course coordinators and educators with an understanding of the educational theory behind student engagement in an online environment and the tools to successfully convert lecture content from f2f to online delivery making effective use of video in a way that is appropriate to your discipline. You will develop an increased awareness of the techniques available for improving student engagement with video content and increased confidence in delivering online synchronous and asynchronous lectures. As part of the Emerging Leaders pathway, this module assumes that participants are familiar with the higher education sector and have at least a basic knowledge of foundational learning and teaching related theories and concepts. It is recommended that you have already completed the ADEPT Developing Educators pathway modules Introduction to University Teaching and Designing Engaging Learning Environments.
