SCoPE Seminar: Teaching and Learning Centres Revisited

SCoPE Live Event: SCoPE-ing out Teaching and Learning Centres

Friday, 22 February, 11:00 AM » 12:00 PM
Site event
This Elluminate session is live from the Educational Developers Caucus Annual Winter Conference in Vancouver.

Presenters: Vivian Neal and Alice Cassidy
Moderator: Amy Severson
Description:
In the summer of 2007, we were part of an international dialogue (through visits and a seminar using SCoPE, an online educational community) about the range of programs and services offered at teaching and learning centres (TLCs). We will share results and invite you to consider connections to your work. Our results 'nuggets' include: (1) a broad range of roles (such as researcher, project manager, instructional designer and workshop facilitator); (2) the interplay between conducting research and leading practice-based seminars and (3) the extent to which we serve undergraduate students. Compare the list of programs and services from our survey of UK, Canada and Australia to yours. Consider adding one to
your repertoire? All who participate are invited to contribute to a paper that is under construction.
