Supporting new lecturers in learning about education is a national priority and doing so

openly allows it to go international• Provide a fully online mode to the PG Cert for staff at

any institution of HE, globally– Singapore, South Africa, Australia, USA, Canada, UK, Russia

• Enable professional & workplace based learning from outside the course to be recognised in the course

Multiple social and material influences converge [in] MOOC pedagogy…: teacher preferences and beliefs,

disciplinary influences, patterns of learner expectation and engagement, and other contextual factors such as

institutional teaching culture (Bayne & Ross 2014)

• Activity-based we do or make things in groups, with tools, with criteria and roles

• Experiential, self-evaluative, practitioner-centred, pragmatics - what works

• Dialogic we talk synchronously and asynchronously, even back into deep time

• Reflective bringing experience into scholarly evidence• Participatory tutors engage as learners• Community-located in disciplines, institutions, work,

the world and society• Outcomes led curriculum and aims are validated by the

University and contribute to HEA professional recognition

• Where, for me FSLT14 worked so well is that it clearly knows what it can and cannot deliver. It is a Bonsai tree, not the entire forest. This is a blessing.

• I was waxing lyrical about the experience to an academic colleague I bumped into … and she commented "you're obviously thriving on it!”

• What has made this course so enjoyable is the smaller scope, the great facilitation and the participation from such a great diversity of learners

• I like how this course is focused on what it aims to teach/what we need to learn and does so by being structured in the same way. Perfect alignment.

• The most important thing I did, was reflect about the different ways of teaching and learning, … based on our own experience.

• A forgiving, inclusive and accessible, and I repeat 'human' touch.
