Residential Workshop for Newly-Appointed and Aspiring Lecturers
Organisers: GEES Subject Centre
Dates: 10 – 11 April 2008
Location: Hornton Grange, Birmingham
This workshop is designed for recently-appointed teaching staff and
postgraduates/GTAs who are aspiring to be lecturers in Geography, Earth and
Environmental Sciences (GEES). The aim is to help participants learn about,
evaluate and discuss a range of approaches, methods and resources for
learning, teaching and assessment in these disciplines. By being
discipline-specific the event will complement any generic-based
institutional courses that delegates are attending or have taken. It will
also provide an informal opportunity for delegates to meet and share
experiences with other new GEES staff from other institutions.
