Toolkit Themes and Topics – March 2019
The DESTIN WP3 Needs Assessment
(Bath FEB 2019) identified 7 main (core)
headings which needed to be addressed through this DESTIN TOOLKIT…
Pedagogy – T+L Strategies
Programme Design
Learning Outcomes
Benchmarking
Module Design
Assessment and Feedback
Terminology
Other topics will be dealt with
through these core headings.
The DESTIN WP3 Needs Assessment
identified these additional topics (in order of priority):
QA for Institutions (especially how it relates to and
affects programme design * Workloads * SER (Self Evaluation Report)
documentation * Student Surveys *
Student Assessment * Student Centred Learning (SCL) * Peer Review * Levels of
Award * Student Handbook * Credits/ECTS.
HOW
will we address our core headings through any DESTIN TOOLKIT?
We’re using the Tempus ALIGN
Guidelines as the start point for our DESTIN toolkit.
We’re attempting to update the
ALIGN materials, to make them more relevant to the current (2019) Ukrainian and
EU HE context. In addition, we’re trying to keep the TOOLKIT materials relevant
and useable.
Each Topic or Heading will be
based on modularised PACKETS (we’re NOT
calling them modules). Some headings will be dealt with in one or two
PACKETS. Other headings may require many more PACKETS (in other words, the
TOOLKIT should be elastic and scaleable).
The DESTIN toolkit is an
architecture, rather than a finished building. We’re hoping that DESTIN partner HEIs will prepare and upload their own
documents, resources, instances of best practice, checklists and workshops,
eventually replacing the documents we start with here.
Each PACKET will have an
introductory text, explaining what subjects and topics the packet will address
and how the packet will work.
Each PACKET will have
explanatory text resources. Each PACKET should be accomplished by a learner or
programme team in a short time? Larger packets should be broken down into
smaller, more doable packets. Each PACKET will also have links to other
(external) pdf and video resources (additional or supplementary OERs (Open
Educational Resources) (eg UCD or Plymouth University 7 Steps).
Over time, we hope to add video
resources, screencasts, e-learning components, training workshops and short
tests to our DESTIN TOOLKIT.
