pare Two Case Studies
In this section you should provide reflective accounts of two particular contributions or roles which:
• Have had a significant impact upon the co-ordination, support, supervision, management and/or
mentoring of others (whether individuals and/or teams), in relation to teaching and learning
• Demonstrate your sustained effectiveness in relation to teaching and learning and that you meet the
criteria for Senior Fellowship.
Use the two studies to address the elements of D3. You might include informal activities, whether individual,
collaborative or team-based, that had a significant impact on your academic practice and/or on the practice
of others.
At least one of your case studies should address a situation where you worked with others using your skills,
knowledge and awareness in leading, managing or organising programmes, subjects and/or disciplinary
areas.
You should clearly demonstrate an integrated and reflective approach to academic practice that
incorporates research, scholarship and/or professional practice.
Aspects for inclusion in this section might include:
• Developing quality enhancement
- how you place learning and teaching and the student experience at the heart of your academic
practice
- ways you interact with others to ensure appropriate alignment of teaching, learning and
assessment practices
- how you ensure that student learning within the context of your responsibilities is enriched by
disciplinary and pedagogic research, scholarship and professional practice (your own and that of
others)
- ways you have fostered dynamic approaches to teaching and learning through creativity and
innovation
• Supporting other colleagues
- how you have supported other colleagues to enhance their practices
- specific examples of how you have enhanced academic practice through co-
ordinating/managing others
- your roles in teaching and learning projects and initiatives at departmental, institutional or
wider HE context
• Sustained engagement with educational and staff development
- staff development activities you have facilitated (informal and formal) that enhance your
colleagues’ abilities to meet the dimensions of the UKPSF
- how your contributions have promoted the student learning experience through professional
development of staff under your influence and guidance. For example, through informal or
formal mentoring arrangements
- how you have disseminated your knowledge and skills in teaching and supporting learning to
audiences within, and external to your institution
• Evaluation of academic practice
- steps taken to develop your own practice and how you have used your own experience to
enable others to reflect on and critique their own practice
- how you support, encourage and implement evaluation processes designed to enhance the
student learning experience
