Maynooth University Centre for Teaching and Learning

MODULE  APPROACH & ASSESSMENT:

Teaching and Learning Approach
 
Participants will be required to engage in cross-disciplinary discussions and activities and will apply their learning to their own current and future tutor/demonstrator/teaching contexts. The core learning happens through reflection on their own practice of tutoring and demonstrating across the duration of the module and participants are expected to discuss how they use and test out module learning through class discussion and module assessments. Module attendance and engagement is, therefore, crucial to the learning in this module. 

Assessment Approach
 
The module is assessed by continuous assessment and marked on a Pass/Review basis and taking into account module attendance. Assessments focus on planning, observing and reflecting on module topics in the context of participants' own teaching practice. Module attendance will be taken into account when assessing work.   Participants will receive feedback on assignment elements.

Attendance

This is an accredited module and participants are required to attend all of the timetabled sessions. A record will be maintained to monitor attendance and unsatisfactory attendance may impact on successful completion of the module.
