TWT S02 E01 - Object Based Learning with Dr. Maria Kukhareva

In this episode, we focus on Team-Based Learning (TBL), a variety of flipped learning, and how this approach can help encourage students to prepare for lectures, seminars and other teaching sessions by creating a system of accountability. As this approach emphasises teamwork, it can also help students to develop teamwork and negotiation skills, as well as promote peer evaluation and critical thinking in the classroom. Best of all, TBL provides a clearly structured template for planning and delivering teaching sessions.

Tab Betts talks to Simon Tweddell PHEA, who is a Senior Lecturer and Curriculum Development Fellow based in the University of Bradford’s Centre for Educational Development. Simon is also a National Teaching Fellow and Principal Fellow of the Higher Education Academy; he was the first certified consultant trainer for Team-Based Learning in the UK and is involved in promoting its use in other institutions across Europe.

Season 2

TWT S02 E02 - Team Based Learning with Simon Tweddell

In this episode, we focus on how to empower learners as researchers by making them specialists on a sub-topic within their discipline. This approach is simple but effective.  Start by dividing aspects of the subject you are teaching into sub-topics or research areas. Each student is assigned one of these to pursue as a personal research project throughout the module, compiling a portfolio of their reflections and findings along the way. Their final portfolio submission demonstrate an application of the general content studied (common to all students) to their specific research area (unique to them).

Tab Betts talks to Professor Lynne Murphy, who is Professor of Linguistics at the University of Sussex, and Dr. Paolo Oprandi, who is a Senior Learning Technologist at the University of Sussex. Lynne has recently published a book, entitled The Prodigal Tongue, which explores the love-hate relationship between British and American English (https://theprodigaltongue.com). Paolo has recently joined our team in Technology Enhanced Learning at the University of Sussex, after working as an E-learning Developer in IT Services.

TWT S02 E03 - Specialism Based Learning with Professor Lynne Murphy

In this episode, we talk to Claire Fennell, a Senior Instructional Designer at University College Cork in Ireland, about how to blend classroom teaching with online learning in your virtual learning environment (VLE). As we approach a new academic year, it's a great opportunity to think about how you can build, update or redesign a site in your VLE to integrate aspects of online learning into your classroom teaching. Claire introduces the ADDIE model of instructional design and a range of interactive tools, such as Sway, Roojoom, Google Forms and Screencast-o-matic, which can help to enhance teaching and learning in both online and offline spaces. Check out this episode for tons of useful tips, tools and strategies for creating effective blended learning activities for your learners.
