Abstract

What does teaching excellence within Further and Higher Education look like? This book takes the Teaching Excellence Framework (TEF) as its starting point. Each chapter identifies one specific aspect of the TEF and, with the help of case studies, guides the reader through innovative teaching strategies and how to overcome challenges that range from digital learning to feedback and assessment. Extensive practical suggestions are offered for the reader to use in their own teaching, all underpinned by a sound theoretical base. Responsive to current debate, topics addressed include:

• Widening Participation • Internationalisation • Gaming and simulation • Student employability

The entire volume is cross-referenced to both the TEF and the National Student Survey (NSS), meaning readers can easily contextualise what they have read. With higher investment in teaching and learning, and the changing demands and expectations of students, this timely and practical book will help you successfully navigate your teaching career within Higher Education.
