SUMMARY:Students’ academic skills development in a culturally diverse learning environment: How the Language Centre can help.
DESCRIPTION:Students’ academic skills development in a culturally diverse learning environment: How the Language Centre can help. \nIt is well recognised that teaching students in a culturally diverse learning environment is extremely rewarding\, but also present challenges\, both for academics and students.  Such challenges will be daunting for those who have limited experience of supporting and teaching overseas students\, but also for students experiencing for the first time an international classroom. \nThis session will address the following questions: \n\nWho is in the Language Centre and what does it do?\nWhat are the main challenges facing students who are not native speakers of English?\nWhat are these ‘academic skills’ that all students are expected to come to university with or to develop?\nHow can the Language Centre help you support students with academic skills development?\n\nPlease click here to book.

SUMMARY:ChatGPT: To ban or not to ban
DESCRIPTION:ChatGPT Online Events: Exploring Responses to AI in Higher Education \nThe rise of artificial intelligence (AI) has transformed various aspects of our lives\, including education. AI-powered technologies such as ChatGPT are becoming more popular in higher education\, providing students and educators with new ways to engage with course material\, collaborate\, and evaluate learning outcomes. However\, the increasing use of AI in education also raises important questions and concerns about its impact on teaching and learning. \n\nHow can we ensure that AI is used ethically and effectively in higher education?\nWhat is the appropriate response to the use of AI in assessments?\n\nChatGPT: To ban or not to ban \nAbout this event\nIs it possible to detect the use of ChatGPT in assessments? Is it right to punish students for using it or should we be trusting them? And is banning ChatGPT as futile as banning google? Join us to hear from a range of perspectives on the appropriate response to ChatGPT in higher education. \nSpeakers confirmed: \n\nDr Phil Anthony\, Head of Technology Enhanced Learning at the University of Kent\nStella Maris\, Rector’s Assessor at St Andrew’s University and QAA Student Strategic Advisory Committee member\nDr Bronwyn Eager\, Senior Lecturer at the University of Tasmania\nDr Irene Glendinning\, Academic Manager for Student Experience at Coventry University\n\nTo book a place please click here.

SUMMARY:LTExChange Symposium Event - Decolonising Learning and Teaching
DESCRIPTION:We are delighted to welcome Professor Sally Everett (Kings College London\, UK) as keynote speaker for the second LTExChange Symposium of the year entitled ‘Decolonising Learning and Teaching’ – book your place now! \nDecolonising Learning and Teaching \nIn this keynote talk we will explore issues of power\, privilege\, and pedagogy in our post pandemic learning landscape. Against a background of raging culture wars\, the Black Lives Matter movement\, and ever-increasing awarding gaps for black and minority ethnic student groups\, it has never been more important and more urgent to collectively “consider how our pedagogic practices might positively respond to calls for a more culturally sustaining pedagogy” (Hanesworth\, Bracken\, and Elkington\, 2019). In positively responding to this challenge\, I encourage us all to embrace the opportunity to become less myopic in our perspectives and strive towards practices that aim to liberate our students\, our pedagogies\, and ourselves\, from approaches built on European-centred and western frameworks that have invisibilised subaltern voices and indigenous knowledges. \n  \nAlthough this talk will be underpinned by literature\, its primary focus will be on sharing some practical ways to approach the decolonisation and diversification of our learning and teaching – thereby reframing and reconstructing the way we engage in university education. Challenging an institutional hierarchy and monopoly on knowledge is an incredibly daunting prospect and knowing where to start can lead to fear\, paralysis\, and confusion. Therefore\, I hope the discussion might help Teesside University continue in its development of a powerful and penetrating community of inclusive practice. This talk may mark the start of a journey for some\, and for others\, offer a useful reflection point and some encouragement to continue in their pursuit to overturn and challenge pedagogic tools of exclusion. In sharing ideas and coming together\, we are well positioned to collectively explore how we can sensitively and authentically occupy uncomfortable spaces and foster approaches that promote greater social justice\, and a more truthful view of the world to our students. \nTo book a place on this workshop\, please click here.  \nThis session is for TU staff only.

SUMMARY:Questions of English in the classroom
DESCRIPTION:Teesside University aims to be a global institution that provides an excellent international experience through partnerships and networks across the world\, for example through diversifying and enriching the University by recruiting students and staff from across the world and encouraging students to become global citizens by creating international opportunities throughout their University experience. \nThe accompanying drive for internationalising learning and teaching at the University leads to an interesting discussion regarding the English which is used in the classroom by both the teacher and the learners. \nIn this session\, ‘Questions of English in the classroom’\, the English Language Centre will lead an exploration of approaches to effective communication\, how audience and purpose play a role in this consideration and what strategies can be used to promote better understanding for all students. \nTo book a place on this session please click here.
