The Centre for Study of Higher Education (CSHE) is very proud to announce that AdvanceHE now recognises 77% of the University’s academic and teaching staff as Associate Fellows (32%), Fellows (63%), Senior Fellows (4.6 %) or Principal Fellows (5). This is well above the sector average of 47% and been achieved through a number of nationally recognised programmes, including the taught postgraduate certificate in higher education (PGCHE) and related programmes for early career academics. The new Route to Recognition for Experienced Staff (RRES), launched in 2017, has also contributed to this success. CSHE has trained staff as internal assessors and mentors for RRES, and successfully supported a 5-fold increase in Senior Fellows at Kent. This positive upward trajectory from 32% in 2015-16 means that the University is close to achieving its ambitious target of 80% of our teaching staff being qualified by 2020.
The TEF and Student Engagement Conference is scheduled for Friday 8th November 2019 in the Woolf Lecture Theatre. The conference aims to promote, share and explore practices to enhance education, student experience and student engagement. Our keynote speakers are Professor Becky Huxley-Binns from the University of Hull, Tom Lowe, the University of Winchester and Dr Jenny Marie from University College London.
These talks will be complemented by a set of workshops covering a number of our potential TEF case studies to stimulate discussion and further innovation, alongside networking opportunities designed to facilitate wider conversations about the TEF and how we can best prepare for our next submission/s.
The programme is available to view here and presentations are available here.

Every UK university can nominate up to 3 individuals annually for a National Teaching Fellowship award, a process administered through the UK Higher Education Academy. The aim of National Teaching Fellowship (NTF) awards is to recognise individual excellence in teaching and/or supporting higher education learning. The HEA also recently developed an award to recognise the increasing importance of programme teams in teaching and student learning support: The Collaborative Award for Teaching Excellence (CATE). While both NTFS and CATE are very competitive (55 NTF and 6 CATE awards are made nationally), University staff have enjoyed success, most recently in the 2017 and 2018 rounds.
Presented by Fran Beaton, UELT, Academic Practice Team on Thursday 18 October 2018, 13:00 - 13:45 in the UELT Seminar Room, Canterbury, this briefing is an opportunity to find out about the criteria, the application process, timescale and available support and hear about the experiences of previous NTFS and CATE winners.

The way in which students engage with and learn from the multiple sources of feedback available to them is a key issue in the enhancement of student learning in higher education. Well-designed assessment tasks and associated feedback can yield large learning gains compared to a variety of other educational interventions, yet the National Survey of Students consistently reveals the lowest student satisfaction for assessment and feedback. Although students struggle to understand what is expected of them on academic tasks, formal statements of assessment criteria are typically insufficient to build the task understanding and evaluative expertise that students need to monitor their own learning. Increasing opportunities for dialogic feedback (i.e. interactions between lecturers and students, students and students, and students own self assessments as students are doing the assessment task) may result in better learning outcomes.
This research symposium brings together five assessment and feedback researchers who will discuss their own research findings in relation to these key concepts and consider implications with delegates. Sponsored by the Faculty of Social Sciences and the Centre for the Study of Higher Education at the University of Kent, the event is free to participants both within and external to Kent, though places are limited.
When:Wednesday 16 May 2018, 12.30-17.30

These teaching-related events are intended for academic and teaching staff with at least three years Higher Education teaching experience. The theme for 2017/18 is: Creative approaches to learning, teaching and assessment.
This interactive forum offers opportunities to hear about initiatives which have had an impact on student learning, to share experiences with colleagues from across the university, to explore tensions and opportunities of different approaches and how these could apply to your own teaching.
While TEF and student surveys such as NSS, PTES and PRES have increasingly foregrounded teaching as a metric, the emphasis in these sessions is on teaching as exciting, challenging, surprising..... an activity in which we can take pride.
The first session, 'Using creative and imaginative forms of assessment' will be presented by Professor Charlotte Sleigh, School of History on Tuesday 10 October, 12.55-14.00.
Further details of sessions are available here. All sessions are free and take place in the UELT Seminar Room near Santander Bank (unless otherwise stated). Please email cpdbookings@kent.ac.uk [4] to book a place.
