OVERALL DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
4
Overall Training Approach
5
Three core areas … 1) Subject matter contents 2) E- learning/ blended learning. 3) Problem based learning. INF210: Research Methodologies in Computing
6
Learning outcomes TCU guidelines prescribe 3 categories of qualifications: Knowledge Skills Competences
7
ToT exit level outcomes After the ToT training the participants should be able to: Plan, implement, evaluate and review exemplary staff training on (re-)designing selected courses and/or semesters to integrate elements of e-learning and PBL, adapted to the institutional context and to the needs of staff members from the institution. Reflect upon the experiences gained from the ToT training and the implications of these experiences for the formulation of institutional strategies for e-learning and PBL Train other staff Reflect on training
8
Selected intended learning outcomes K3. Explain and discuss the strengths and weaknesses with regard to student motivation, of various e- learning approaches and PBL models S1. Analyze, compare, select and apply a range of e- learning tools and student-activating techniques (incl. PBL) to design a single teaching/learning activity that aims to support students in achieving formulated learning outcomes C2. Design, implement, facilitate and evaluate problem based projects incl. the creation of motivating learning environments, for face-to-face and online collaborative learning Discuss teaching methods Design learning activities Design PBL projects
9
Assessment of ToT participants Active participation in 2-3 workshops A written assessment in the form of a Teaching Portfolio

FINDINGS
16
Findings - 1 Workshops: 68 participants in at least 2 workshops (41 TZ / 27 GH) Hands-on approach gave good activity in the workshops and good feed-back from participants Online work: Few courses described on bsulearning.org – 4-10 mentioned, few follow-ups No courses followed on own platforms
17
EVALUATION
18
Overall evaluation Intended Learning Outcomes achieved at level 2.5 or better (1: Fully achieved; 5: Not at all achieved)
19
Findings beyond ToT Many course created – many teachers trained as a consequens of ToT In all cases the PBL model is course based PBL So far no interdisciplinary PBL model has been attempted but experiments are underway in KCMUCo
20
REFLECTIONS
21
Trainers’ reflection A timely initiative Impressive results achieved in all institutions Some of the challenges underestimated by us E-learning is slowly rising Appreciation of student-centred learning Still a long way to go to achieve interdisciplinary problem based learning as integrated part of whole curriculum

22 … time for questions and discussion … Thank you for your attention
