CAIeRO for Individuals or Teams
Mode of delivery: Pre-CAIeRO discussions, a one day workshop and CAIeRO follow-up activity
Length of Session: One full day workshop
If your module needs some redesign, then sign up for a CAIeRO module redesign workshop today!
CAIeRO can be done with a course team or individually where you will work through several stages of design activity.
Team CAIeROs have the advantage of co-designing modules on the same programme, which helps with creating a consistent learner experience (and also with team building!).
To arrange a team CAIeRO, contact: LD@northampton.ac.uk
If your team are not currently able to get together for a CAIeRO, you can still benefit from the process by bringing your module to a CAIeRO for Individuals. These sessions are open to staff from all subject areas, so you will benefit from some cross-disciplinary perspectives as well as guidance from trained facilitators.
Note: participants tell us that they get the most out of CAIeRO if they complete the full workshop. That said, we recognise that teams and individuals may not always need to complete all the stages. If you’d like to arrange a session covering a particular element, e.g. storyboarding a module or prototyping learning activities, please contact the Learning Design team.
What staff need(s) will the workshop meet?
• There have been some changes in our field/professional standards/teaching team, and we’d like to update our programme to reflect these
• I’m designing a new programme or module. How can I make sure it’s constructively aligned and it will meet students’ needs?
• I would like to adapt the teaching on my programme or module to be more active and/or blended
Through this you will...
Take part in a creative, innovative approach to course design or revision. You will develop a course blueprint, including aims, learning outcomes and assessment plan and create a storyboard of the Learning and Teaching process and develop examples of student activities.
Who would benefit from this workshop
All Learning and Teaching staff (Programme and Module Leaders, lecturers, ALs, Academic Librarians and other Learning Support staff).
