SUMMARY:Developing Practice in Personal Tutoring: Personal Tutoring Code of Practice
DESCRIPTION:This session will focus around the University’s Personal Tutoring Code of Practice; we will discuss its aims and rationale and the key principles that form the basic underpinning of the Code.  We will explore the key responsibilities of Personal Tutoring at Teesside and the pastoral\, academic and professional/career conversations that take place between tutor and tutee.  Colleagues will be introduced to the Academic Enhancement Framework (AEF) and particularly the ‘Student Success’ strand which incorporates the expectations around personal tutoring and working with data to support success.  Staff will be encouraged to work towards enhancement and excellence in these areas. \nPersonal Tutors should be proactive in their role and focus on improving student performance providing a consistent\, equitable\, structured and data informed approach for all students to pastoral\, general academic and professional support.  Providing general academic support will be focussed around assisting the student achieve their potential (drawing on analytics to facilitate the discussions).  In supporting students around pastoral and professional related issues it may be appropriate to direct them to colleagues across the University who can provide more bespoke support (for example SLS and Student Learning in SLAR). \nThis session is relevant to all new academic colleagues who are Personal Tutors within their Schools and may also be relevant to other academic and support staff who wish to find out more about Personal Tutoring at Teesside University. \nTo book a place on this session please click here.

SUMMARY:Designing Learning Experiences on Blackboard Ultra
DESCRIPTION:Blackboard Ultra is the University’s Virtual Learning Environment (VLE). It is a modern\, responsive platform\, designed to function on all devices (including mobile)\, and is used for all our campus taught courses. \nA series of monthly institution-wide sessions aimed at colleagues in Schools understand the basics of Blackboard Ultra and get to grips with the features they will be expected to use when setting up and delivering modules and assessing learning. A key feature of these sessions will be to help colleagues design impactful learning experiences on the VLE\, ensuring that the VLE becomes an expansion of the learning ecosystem. \nTo book a place on this session please click here.  \nIn addition to these monthly sessions\, we encourage you to reach out to us for one-to-one coaching on course design on the VLE via elearning@tees.ac.uk. \nWe have prepared for all staff a self-study CPD package of learning here: https://blogs.tees.ac.uk/lteonline/2021/10/05/blackboard-ultra-self-study-cpd-2/

SUMMARY:LTExChange Symposium Event - Mattering and Belonging in Student Engagement
DESCRIPTION:To book a place please click here.  \nThis event will critically consider what it means to meaningfully engage students and staff in increasingly digital communities of learning. Keynote speaker: Karen Gravett (University of Surrey\, UK). \n‘Mattering and Belonging in and for Student Engagement’ \nOur recent times have upended the way we think about student learning. With the shift online and now to increasingly blended teaching practices\, or following increased concerns about students’ attendance\, educators have focused upon questions relating to students’ engagement and sense of belonging. In this keynote presentation\, I will share some of my recent research and practice examining belonging and student engagement\, enabling participants to think about students’ experiences of higher education in new ways. Specifically\, I consider how we might think about belonging as a process\, thinking about how belonging evolves\, what belonging makes possible\, and why it might be that some students do not wish to belong. I will consider different perspectives on belonging and argue for the value of an approach to teaching that notices the situated\, day-to-day\, practices of students’ learning. I will think about how belonging plays out in the ‘micro moments’ of learning and teaching\, and how relational pedagogies may be helpful in fostering engagement and connection. I also explore the concept of mattering in learning: thinking about who and what matters within these learning moments. This presentation will conclude with exploring practical approaches for supporting students\, as I explore how we can draw upon evidence-based research to assist our work in maximising students’ potential and fostering belonging for a diversity of students in contemporary higher education.

SUMMARY:Using Learner Analytics impactfully for student support via StREAM
DESCRIPTION:StREAM is the University’s learner analytics platform. The use of learner analytics is designed to support all our students in maximising their chances of success and realising their potential. SLAR will be hosting a series of monthly institution-wide sessions on StREAM aimed at teaching staff to will help you understand the platform and the affordances of learner analytics for timely student support. We will cover: \nUsing Real time data – StREAM takes data from a wide range of digital touch points\, which together represents participation in academic learning.\nUnderstanding engagement Algorithm – An algorithm is applied to our data\, tailored to reflect how engagement is represented at Teesside\, which calculates an overall “engagement score” indicator for each student.\nInterpreting engagement Score – A simple measure of engagement for easy-to-understand visualisation and interpretation of data.\nReviewing holistic View – Taking the engagement information en-masse\, StREAM also provides a holistic view of how students are engaging at school and course level. \nIn the meantime\, user guides\, and associated materials around the Personal Tutoring Code of Practice\, Information Governance and guidance from SLS can be found here: Student Learning & Academic Registry – Learner Analytics (tees.ac.uk) \nPlease note this session is face to face. \nTo book a place on this session please click here.
