All information is not equal.

As a budding researcher, it is important to ensure that the information you have sourced is relevant, and above all, reliable.

Web Resources

  • Deep and Surface Approaches to Learning - a page from within The Higher Education Academy's UK website that provides another perspective and more information although it does take the crude viewpoint that "deep is good, surface is bad, and we should teach in a way that encourages students to adopt a deep approach; although achieving this is not so easy".

Course Aims

To enhance participants’ understandings of, and insights into, the principles and practices of prior learning and associated debates in a tertiary context and explore how evidence can be presented and assessed. To prepare participants for a prior learning assessment process using a model designed to evaluate evidence against predetermined learning outcomes.


Syntax issues

Another useful trick

If you insert you can get rid of the ugly prefix of subpages and get the wiki to display a page title irrespective of the url of the page.

See for example: on this page.

http://wikieducator.org/Assessing_for_Prior_Learning/A4PL_Course_Assessments

(Now it doesn't display Assessing_for_Prior_Learning/A4PL Course Assessments)


Corrrect the "=" sign is a reserved character in the parser engine for templates. Don't worry about the technical reason, but there is a fix.

Whenever an equal sign appears within a pedagogical template just include this in two curly brackets and it will work fine. For example:

http://moodle.op.ac.nz/mod/forum/view.php?id=86418

(Note the addition of the {{ }} to contain the equal sign.

This page contains information, content and resources for the course Gaining Foundation Skills for Learning and Teaching, which is a level 5 elective course within the Graduate Certificate in Tertiary Learning and Teaching - level 7 (GCTLT), delivered by the Educational Development Centre (EDC) at Otago Polytechnic, Aotearoa New Zealand.


Gaining Foundation Skills for Learning and Teaching (GFS) provides an introduction and overview of useful skills and knowledge for those new to tertiary teaching. It can also be used as a great refresher of sometimes forgotten basics for those who have been teaching adults for a while.

Material introduced in the GFS course is developed further in the four core courses of the GCTLT. To find out more about the programme read the GCTLT information sheet 2009


The formal Gaining Foundation Skills for Learning and Teaching course consists of a consecutive 3-day face-to-face workshop (10th to 12th February 2009) followed by 5 weeks of online interaction, there is also an expectation of independent study.

Participants can formally enrol by emailing EDCEnquiries@tekotago.ac.nz.
