Personal preparation to appear and feel confident
Pre-work #1: Please bring along a 3 minute YouTube clip of your favourite performer who epitomises the three principles of Engage, Entertain and Inform. You will be asked to explain to the rest of the group how this might inform your teaching and learning practice.
Pre-work #2: Please draft a 15 minute lecture (with whatever materials you see fit) which showcases your cutting edge research and is aimed at an undergraduate audience. The lecture should follow the pedagogical cycle to be clear of the learning outcomes, how you will deliver the learning, and how you will assess that it has been assimilated.
