| Program Name | Involve Project: inclusive teaching in Computer Science |
| Program Description | This is a practical project intended to effect positive change and build on existing expertise in teaching and learning and so address the needs of all students who wish to study Computing. There are two themes in our project. The first is the recognition that different students have different learning styles. We will ensure that we are addressing the needs of all learning styles in our teaching and assessment procedures. The second is identifying and implementing best practice towards achieving gender equity. We will develop a gender inclusive curriculum which encourages active participation and enhances student confidence. These measures require changes in teaching methods to affect the perceived and actual departmental culture. |
