Description

Which approach fits best when implementing change in university teaching?
How do we know if we improve the quality of our education by using technology?

The Librarian and College Archivist of Trinity College Dublin, Helen Shenton, invites you to a presentation delivered by Jan Haarhuis University of Utrecht (UU), who will discuss UU’s strategy for education innovation and how they have implemented the Educate-it programme.

The UU educational model is one of engaged learning which aims to stimulate students to be responsible for their own personal development and academic progress.

In order to create their vision for education and IT, the university implemented a cultural change programme with specific emphasis on quality and research. To find out which implementation strategy was best and in order to measure the effects of innovations with blended learning, the Educate-it programme team collaborated with colleagues in the university’s School of Governance, School of Education and School of Social and Behavioural Sciences.

What to expect from this talk

  • Explanation of the ‘why, what and how’ of the Educate-it programme

  • Results of the implementation of educational innovation so far and how this is being scaled up

  • Best practice and collaboration in longitudinal research of educational innovation programmes

Audience Participation
