Peer Review of Teaching in Higher Education ELT522

Introduction

The purpose of this unit is to promote the continuous enhancement of your professional practice in university learning and teaching. This is achieved primarily by helping you to apply knowledge of the principles underpinning critical reflection and build the skills of effective engagement in that process. These skills of objectively and critically analysing, evaluating and justifying are used to examine the assumptions that underpin your teaching and learning practices. A range of experiences such as active participation in class discussions, engagement with the relevant literature and participation in a peer observation process support the development of your critical reflection skills.
ELT522 is a core unit in the Graduate Certificate of University Learning and Teaching (part of the Bachelor of Education with Professional Honours, Higher Education). The Graduate Certificate of University Learning and Teaching is aligned with the UK Professional Standards Framework (UKPSF). Successful completion of approved study plan within this unit and the Grad Cert ULT will allow you to gain recognition as a Fellow of the UK Higher Education Academy (UK HEA). The key dimensions of the UKPSF covered and assessed within this unit are included after each ILO. (Additional dimensions less core to the unit are included in brackets.)
