Dear All
I hope that 2017 has started well for you.
The Fellowship team is making sure and steady progress on
the development of the modules (named in the December 14 post). Two colleagues
are developing each module and an outline of each proposed module has been
reviewed by a topic expert and feedback has been provided. Colleagues are now
working to develop their modules fully in order to send to them back to their
expert reviewer in March.
Over the next few months we will post information about each
of the modules and ask your advice on what we are proposing to cover in them.
The Fellowship team has collected survey and interview data
from over 20 colleagues in the Australian higher education sector who are in
charge of their institution’s teaching induction program. The results provide
an interesting snapshot of current provision in our sector.
Earlier this month I reported to the funders of this
fellowship, the Australian Department of Education and Training, on progress at
the six month mark of the Fellowship. We are on time and within budget on all
outcomes. The research that we have conducted is ‘extra’ to the original
application. All in all, I am delighted with the progress we are making in the
Fellowship and I am immensely grateful to everyone who is contributing to the
Fellowship. It’s a thoroughly enjoyable and fabulous collaborative effort.
Cheers
Kym
