Responding to staff and student voices captured in the 2021 Teaching, Learning & Assessment Survey Trinity has identified digital assessment as a strategic development theme highly relevant to colleagues across the disciplines.The Academic Practice “Spotlight Series” is a series of professional development events focused on a specific theme of strategic importance to Trinity. These interactive events provide opportunities for academic staff to discuss, connect, and share expertise and perspectives on key topics relating to teaching, learning and assessment. These events also aim to support the development of communities of practice across the disciplines. |
