Developing your teaching philosophy  | Stephanie Yee and Tracey Pieterse
“If you are thinking of writing your teaching philosophy but have no idea where to start then this workshop is for you!  Please join us for an interactive session on developing your teaching philosophy”.

Bridging the writing gap  | Dr Andrew Dubovyi

Andrew will present the newly designed seminar “Scientific writing and Data visualisation” which was taught to Stage III science students in MEDSCI 313 course. The focus was on effective writing techniques and strategies with emphasis on the lab report writing. Additionally, students worked through examples on how to visualize data, and how to present them in their reports or posters.

There are lots of challenges for engaging with Pacific learners. In this session, we will explore what you consider to be challenges (and why) and what are some potential solutions for your specific contexts.

12-1 PM

Psychiatry is a fundamental specialty that is typically taught in the latter part of the undergraduate medical programme. Covid and related lockdowns provided an impetus to review the psychiatry curriculum, its degree of integration with other specialties, mode of delivery and context in which it is taught and learnt. We present our findings from a scoping review of the curriculum transformation literature and focus groups involving students and in-depth interviews involving cohort tutors within the psychiatry programme.

This curriculum review is timely as it integrates Taumata Teitei which underpins the University’s teaching and learning philosophy. Its focus is well aligned with the CFT Signature Pedagogical Practices. The findings from this presentation are not only relevant to psychiatry as a discipline but also other medical specialties and the wider University teaching and learning community.

Experiences and learnings of using the Smartsims simulation tool ‘MikesBikes’ - Audrea Warner and Dr Joanne Mutter, UoA Business School

Link to slides Download Link to slides

Overview of this session: 

Simulations have been used in the University of Auckland Business School for over twenty years. This presentation will explore the benefits offered to students that other learning methods, for example traditional lectures or case discussions, do not offer. Students play a role within the simulation, rather than merely reading and analysing concepts and ideas. Students are able to synthesise and integrate what they read and then make decisions with consequences based on facts or data from the simulations, to consolidate and co-create a deeper understanding. The presentation will also focus on the student reactions to using the simulations, explore what the presenters have learnt as academics from using simulations in their courses.

“What it means to be a Professional Teaching Fellow” with Dr. Julia Novak, Associate Dean (Teaching & Learning), Faculty of Science.

The PTF role is still misunderstood by many and not treated consistently across the University, so how we fulfil the role tends to be up to us as individuals and is dependent upon the support that we receive from our department/school. In this session I plan to share some common misinformation about the PTF role, discuss the issues that we face and consider strategies for the future. My aim is for us to develop a common understanding of what it means it be a PTF and support each other in establishing PTFs as the leaders in teaching and learning.

The 'How To' of Graduate Profile Mapping with Professor Susan Geertshuis 

In this session, Professor Susan Geertshuis from the Business School, will share with FMHS colleagues some key graduate profile initiatives and resources that she and her learning and teaching team have been developing and implementing throughout the first half of this year. One of the aims during Semester One was to develop and disseminate a new School wide course template (and guide) which better maps course learning outcomes to graduate profile capabilities with the hope that this would make more explicit to our staff, students and employers what we hope to teach and develop in our students. Alongside this, the team also developed a Course Learning Outcome Tool, high-level rubrics, and a Learning and Teaching Mapping Guide to make this process as easy as possible for time poor academics in the School. Susan will share some of the achievements (and challenges!) experienced so far during the implementation phase of the graduate profile roll out.

Susan Geertshuis (BA(hons), PhD, AFBPS, CPsychol, PFHEA, FHERDSA) is Director of Learning and Teaching and Professor of Lifelong Learning at the Business School. Previously she held positions of Professor of Organisational Studies, Director of the Centre for Learning and Innovation and Director of the Centre for Learning Research across a number of universities in the UK. She led the University’s graduate profile working group in 2015 and leads a passionate team of specialists charged with overseeing the promotion and advancement of learning and teaching strategy across the Faculty of Business and Economics.

Acknowledging indigenous values in our teaching. The recent SMS review highlighted a need to develop greater cultural awareness and improve progression and completion rates for our Māori and Pasifika students. Over the next two sessions, we explore the benefits for staff and students of Lalanga ha kaha’u monu’ia - embedding indigenous knowledge, values and culture for Māori and Pasifika student success. In this session Julie Wade (TKHM Cultural Liaison) and Sonia Fonua (2018 CLeaR Research Fellow) will outline some of the benefits of embedding values, culture and knowledge that speak to students in science-focused courses. They will also acknowledge the University’s Te Reo Māori policy, Vision Matauranga and introduce the pepeha as one way to build positive relationships between staff and students.

503-028 (Grafton)

The pepeha as a relationship-building tool: Building positive relationships enables student success. The pepeha is a way to introduce yourself in Māori by sharing information that will help to make connections with your audience. In a Māori setting, an important aspect of making connections is through whakapapa (ancestry). 

Preparing your pepeha: Come to this hands-on session to begin creating your own pepeha under the guidance of our team.

Julie Wade, Sonia Fonua, Rachel Cameron, Leslie Schwarcz, Rachelle Singleton

Bonus: In this short video (link Download linkPlay media comment.), we document how three FMHS staff members (Rachel Cameron, Leslie Schwarcz, Rachelle Singleton) explored developing their own pepeha.  N.B. This is not an instructional video. Many thanks to Dennis Kerins for video editing.

What makes a good clinical portfolio?

Presenters: Beau Pontré and Shelley Park

While portfolios are used, and indeed required, in a variety of disciplines to collate student work and document progress, there isn’t likely a one-size-fits-all solution. That was certainly the experience we had when setting up the clinical portfolios for our postgraduate medical imaging programmes. After implementing a custom-built solution using Google Apps, the faculty introduced Chalk and Wire. In this session, we will share our experiences using both of these platforms with the intent to start a discussion about portfolio use in different programmes around the Faculty.

Can ‘contract marking’ work in our teaching?

Janine Wiles reports and reflects on applying the concept of ‘unilateral contract grading’ in a post-graduate methodology course. Contract grading involves setting out a clear set of criteria which students must meet to achieve an agreed grade. If they meet the criteria, specified work is then eligible to be considered for a higher grade. Contract grading emphasises the process of learning, encouraging strong students to take risks and clearly explaining to all students what learning processes are seen as important.

Our post-graduate students are instructed to support their assignment writing with a critical evaluation of relevant theory and evidence from the literature. However, Grant and Booth (2009) provide an analysis of 14 different review types!  Determining what is required from the students writing and assessing appropriately is timely in supporting evidence-based practice for health professionals.

How can Journal Ranking and Citation Metrics guide our appraisal of quality literature?

Presenters: Rhonda-Joy Sweeney, Fran Clements and Catherine Lyman, Heather Gunn

Is it sufficient to just instruct students to use “peer-reviewed” journal articles in their written assignments?  An understanding of journal ranking and citation metrics can inform us of the quality of sources we provide to our students. Therefore, this same understanding might assist students in satisfying assessment requirements to demonstrate full critical awareness of the status of their supporting sources.

Journal Club

Facilitators: Leslie Schwarcz and Rachel Cameron

Reading scholarly literature will develop our teaching but for many of us, fitting this in to an already busy schedule is hard. If you think educational reading is more fun with good company and discussion, join our journal club. Interested parties should come to this session to discuss the feasibility of establishing and maintaining a regular, ongoing TLC journal club.  As a starting point, bring the article you've been meaning to read .... but just haven't gotten around to.

Changing the way we teach laboratory skills

Presenter: Michelle Glass

The time constraints of traditional, weekly, three hour laboratory classes limit the level of student participation and type of experiments that can be completed. In this session, Michelle Glass shares her experience of replacing traditional laboratory teaching methods with an intensive, two-day practical session as an authentic  method for teaching experimental design and data analysis skills to undergraduate students.
