what is concept of educational developing as a results of your studentship experience?
Answers
Answer:
Educational development is about the continuous professional and personal growth of faculty members, and the ongoing evolution of teaching and learning across the entire university. It is both theory and practice, both a discipline and a profession and both with clarity and uncertainty.
It is an invisible job that many faculty members, deans, associate deans and chairs do daily – most times without knowing it labelled as such.
Educational development is a way to initiate and respond to change. It is an enhancement to the roles we already play by taking risks with new practices and communicating our discoveries to colleagues. Educational development allows us to take a proactive responsibility for onboarding and mentoring new faculty, engaging in curriculum redesign or renewal and driving forward new changes at the department and Faculty levels.
