Contemporary approaches to university teaching - a teaching induction MOOC

Dear Colleagues

Enrolments for the free 2020 Contemporary Approaches to University Teaching MOOC are now open at https://www.canvas.net/browse/swinburne/courses/contemporary-approaches-....

The MOOC provides key introductory learning and teaching concepts and strategies for those in their first few years of university teaching. The self-paced MOOC is comprised of 11 expert-developed modules and several specialty modules and resources.

Since launching in January 2018, colleagues from over 90 countries have enrolled. Twenty–nine institutions from nine countries have requested the MOOC content to import into their institution’s LMS. To see how other universities are using the MOOC, visit the ‘How universities are using the MOOC’ section on the Fellowship website https://www.caullt.edu.au/project-resources/olt-fellowship-and-mooc-avai... The Portuguese translation of the MOOC will launch in September and the Spanish and Mandarin translations of the MOOC have been delayed by changing priorities due to the Covid 19 virus.
