SUMMARY:Decolonising Education from Theory to Praxis - Seminar two: Conceptualising decolonisation as praxis
DESCRIPTION:A BILT/CBH/UNESCO Global Chair/Bristol Conversations in Education Seminar series. \nRegister here \nThe aim of this online seminar is to set out our initial understanding of decolonisation as praxis. We will return to reconsider this understanding in the conclusion. The seminar will run from 1 – 2:30pm (last 30 mins is for discussion). \nThis online seminar is an opportunity to collaboratively interrogate the meaning of decolonisation as praxis. Reflecting the discussion on the meaning of decolonisation in the upcoming volume\, Decolonising Education: From Theory to Praxis\, the seminar will engage with the analysis by supporting discussion on: \nGlobal and contemporary themes in the decolonising debate\, as it has manifested in different geographical and temporal locations. \nThe typology of decolonising\, including framing decolonising education in relation to a genealogy of anti-colonial and postcolonial thinking about colonialism\, and education’s role as a site of struggle and resistance in the colonial project. \nDecolonisation as praxis in education\, drawing from critical pedagogy and its focus on the reciprocal and dialectical relationship between theory and practice\, while remaining very much situated in specific contexts and structures of power. \nThe seminar and subsequent chapter will seek to advance framing decolonisation as an epistemic intervention that seeks to challenge the unspoken assumptions which we currently practice with respect to the question of knowledge. For example\, to what extent do our extant intellectual practices remain rooted in the coloniality of power?  What does it mean to ‘decentre’ the colonial epistemology such that it becomes merely one epistemic tradition amongst many that we platform in our teaching and learning. \nThe conversation will also provide an opportunity to reflect on the mainstreaming of decolonising discourse and its increasing use as a metaphor\, its conflation with diversification and the occulting of conversations around structures of power and violence. \nJoining the seminar \nYou will be sent the joining link close to the date\, the seminar will run from 1 – 2:30pm (last 30 mins is for discussion) \nShare this:\n				Share on X (Opens in new window)\n				X\n			\n				Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n				Facebook\n			Like this:Like Loading...

SUMMARY:Dialogic Feedback
DESCRIPTION:Register on Develop via single sign-on \nThis online workshop will showcase examples of approaches to dialogic feedback and will include contributions from staff from across the University. \nAhead of the workshop session attendees are asked to consider the following questions: \nWhy do we care whether our students are engaged? What difference does it make – to their learning\, to us\, to them? And will they only be engaged when we are? \nAre you hesitant about using screencast feedback in your teaching? If so\, what advice\, support\, or persuasion do you need to get you started? \nContributors include: \nDr Lloyd Fletcher (School of Management) – Encouraging Conversations: screencasts at the heart of dialogic feedback\nThe overall purpose of this workshop is to encourage you to use screencast feedback as part of your teaching. To do this\, I’ll offer an evidence-based argument for its benefits\, along with some practical guidance on how you can begin implementing it to enhance your students’ learning. \nResearch has shown that to be effective\, feedback to students should be ‘dialogic’\, i.e.\, it should be integral to an ongoing ‘learning conversation’ with their teachers. A dialogic approach engages students more deeply in their learning\, making it more likely that they will be both willing and able to actually improve their work in the short and long term. Research has also found that recorded feedback – as opposed to traditional written forms – can be dialogic. With the widespread availability of digital tools\, screencast feedback in particular has shown the potential to be a powerful enabler of dialogic feedback. This technique produces a video recording of the student’s work on screen while the teacher talks through their critique of it. \nIn this workshop\, I will:\n(1) provide some brief theoretical grounding for the benefits of dialogic screencast feedback;\n(2) share the results of my own empirical study of its use at Bristol as a way to illustrate the benefits and engage your interest in its potential;\n(3) suggest some ‘quick start’ ideas for how you can begin using screencast in your own teaching. (A more detailed ‘how to guide’ provides a more extensive resource for those interested.) If there is sufficient interest from participants\, then follow-up asynchronous learning activities and coaching (via screencast!) will be available to support your experimentation and developing practice with dialogic screencast. \nDr Christophe Fricker (School of Modern Languages) – Too close for comfort\, or too distant for learning?\nWhen you propose a new unit\, you have to specify how your students\, “personally\,” will be different “as a result of the unit.” In a recent University-wide survey\, students said that in a mental health crisis they like to turn to academics. And wouldn’t you say that many of your favourite teaching experiences involve a special “connection” with students\, around a specific topic of discussion? \nAll these issues point to the value of relationships\, and the difficulty of establishing them in a professional context. Recent research clearly shows that our students will be more inclined to learn when they are able to establish a “resonant” relationship with their instructor\, their peers\, and their subject. Learning will be both more satisfying and more effective if everyone – and everything – involved in the learning process is allowed to “speak” and “resonate.” \nResonance Pedagogy has emerged as a rigorous\, systematic\, theoretically sound and practice-focused approach to building relationships in the classroom\, focusing primarily on dialogue and ongoing feedback and responses. The workshop will present some of the key premises of Resonance Pedagogy\, discuss examples of classroom situations\, and then ask to what extent we can be expected to build resonant relationships\, in view of our commitment to “critical distance” our role in assessment. \nShare this:\n				Share on X (Opens in new window)\n				X\n			\n				Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n				Facebook\n			Like this:Like Loading...

SUMMARY:Students experiences of online assessment
DESCRIPTION:Register on develop via single sign-on \nThis online workshop will explore students experiences of online assessment and includes contributions from both staff and students from across different areas of the University including: \nDr Alicia Gonzalez-Buelga (Mechanical Engineering) \nAlicia is the Exams Officer for Mechanical Engineering. The Department had to move all exams to be online due to covid and we decided to use blackboard test to run the assessments. In this presentation/workshop I will talk through some challenges and advantages of these assessments\, the structure and type of question we chose to minimise collusion and collaboration\, I will share the feedback received from students and academics and proposed some improvements for the future. \nEllen Graves (BILT Student Fellow on the topic of Blended Learning and Online Community) \nEllen’s BILT Student Fellow project has focused on the areas of accessibility and wellbeing\, and students experiences of blended learning and online community. Through this Ellen has explored ways of building more inclusive assessment into the curriculum through alternatives forms of assessment\, authentic assessment\, and tailored wellbeing support. Ellen will provide insights into students’ experiences of assessment and make recommendations for the future based on student feedback. \nStudent Digital Champions representatives. \nWorking to channel the student voice\, Student Digital Champions work with the Digital Education Office and student populations to find examples of excellent student engagement and ways to foster feelings of community and motivation with learning online. In this presentation they will explore the best ways in which students can prepare for online assessments and provide feedback on their own experiences. \nRepresentatives from the Digital Education Office will be available on chat to answer any questions. \nShare this:\n				Share on X (Opens in new window)\n				X\n			\n				Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n				Facebook\n			Like this:Like Loading...

SUMMARY:The Compassionate Conference – transforming learning through pedagogies of care
DESCRIPTION:Staff Click here to Register on Develop via Single sign-on \nStudents Click here to Register \nHopeful\, affective\, and compassionate approaches to learning\, teaching and assessment offer opportunities for transformational educational experiences for our students and for ourselves (Freire 1992; hooks 2003; Patience 2008; Gilbert et al 2017). These approaches place relationship building and care for others at the centre and highlight the role of teachers in recognising and addressing institutional and classroom practices that disadvantage students (Hao 2011). \nThus\, these approaches seek to benefit all but critically recognise the importance of compassionate pedagogies for those whose experiences and voices are already marginalised by common teaching\, learning and assessment methods in Higher Education. Perhaps more than ever before\, the pandemic has foregrounded the value of relationships\, the importance of wellbeing\, and has highlighted a range of challenges for many of our staff and students. \nThe online conference will explore how in difficult times we can take hopeful and compassionate approaches to teaching and assessment for transformational learning\, both in person and on-line. \nConference schedule\n10 am to 11 am Morning Keynote \n\n‘Making change for good: using assessment and feedback to foster engagement and effective learning’ with Professor Sally Brown and Professor Kay Sambell.\n\n11:30 am to 12:30 pm Parallel sessions \n\nTeaching that cares and challenges\nCaring for future generations – engaging students with sustainable futures\n\n12:30 pm to 1:30 pm Lunch \n1:30 pm to 2:30 pm Parallel sessions \n\nDecolonising the curriculum – from theory to practice\nWellbeing in learning and assessment\n\n3 pm to 4 pm Parallel sessions \n\nCompassionate assessment and feedback\nNurturing student agency\n\n4 pm  to 4:10pm plenary with Tansy Jessop and Ros O’Leary \nFull conference details and abstracts\nVisit the conference page for full session details and keynote speaker bios. https://bilt.online/the-compassionate-conference/ \nJoining instructions\nZoom links will be provided a few working days before the conference. \nShare this:\n				Share on X (Opens in new window)\n				X\n			\n				Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n				Facebook\n			Like this:Like Loading...
