Description

In this episode, Natasha Taylor talks to Ashlee Pearson from the School of Engineering about the training programme she delivers for tutors. She tells us how she opens up discussions and explorations of key topics like:

• what are the qualities of a good tutor?
• how you can bring your research into the classroom/curriculum?
• how can you enhance student learning through effective questioning?
• how can you embed values, inclusivity and diversity into the curriculum and your practice?
• what can you learn by reflecting on a session and exploring different future approaches?

Ashlee is herself a PhD student and tutor in the School and this gives her a unique and valuable perspective on the training needs and practice experiences of this important part of our teaching community.
