Flipping project
The Flipping project aims to support academic staff to implement an innovative approach to curriculum design and delivery.
The project will work collaboratively with colleagues, departments and other professional services.
As well as supporting the participants to benefit from peer learning, we will also provide 1-2-1 advice and guidance and appropriate development opportunities (e.g. on the use of appropriate technologies and evaluating the effectiveness of teaching). These latter opportunities are available to all staff who teach or support learning to enable others to benefit from the project.
Aims and objectives
- work with a small number (up to six) units per year to introduce an innovative approach to curriculum design and delivery ('flipped' lectures)
- provide support and development opportunities to academic staff within a context relevant to their needs
- work with students to explore the relevance to and impact on learners of the implementation of innovative teaching methods
- develop guidance and resources (based on our own project experience, research and practice evidence, also from peer institutions) tailored to the needs and context of academic staff and students here.
