The TEF, REF and HEA by Phil Long https://padlet.com/lacorbynista/rjbxatidfg7o Made with a stroke of good luck en-us 2017-09-07 08:33:23 UTC 2026-01-01 06:14:59 UTC hello@padlet.com Do you have any concerns about the changing face of Higher Education as things like TEF, REF and the HEA become more and more important to universities. Have you had any experience of these organisations - was it a positive one? https://padlet.com/lacorbynista/rjbxatidfg7o/wish/185423493 2017-09-07 09:15:35 UTC https://padlet.com/lacorbynista/rjbxatidfg7o/wish/185423493 How can I, as an individual, help to secure a high scoring TEF for my School/University? https://padlet.com/lacorbynista/rjbxatidfg7o/wish/187087998 2017-09-13 09:27:49 UTC https://padlet.com/lacorbynista/rjbxatidfg7o/wish/187087998 https://padlet.com/lacorbynista/rjbxatidfg7o/wish/187088393 2017-09-13 09:29:29 UTC https://padlet.com/lacorbynista/rjbxatidfg7o/wish/187088393 https://padlet.com/lacorbynista/rjbxatidfg7o/wish/191149094 Does the increasing prominence of REF and TEF mean that the traditional academic role, as both researcher and teacher, risks being bifurcated, with individuals channelled either into teaching or research focused roles?]]> 2017-09-26 09:21:49 UTC https://padlet.com/lacorbynista/rjbxatidfg7o/wish/191149094 https://padlet.com/lacorbynista/rjbxatidfg7o/wish/191149431 We all know that TEF uses completely meaningless measures of teaching 'quality'. How can we maintain a real focus on teaching quality, when evaluation is increasingly focused on TEF metrics like employment outcomes, NSS results etc.? ]]> 2017-09-26 09:23:08 UTC https://padlet.com/lacorbynista/rjbxatidfg7o/wish/191149431 https://padlet.com/lacorbynista/rjbxatidfg7o/wish/191149769 Research has consistently shown student bias against female lecturers in student evaluations. How can we resist the use of potentially biased metrics in evaluations of our performance as academics?]]> 2017-09-26 09:24:24 UTC https://padlet.com/lacorbynista/rjbxatidfg7o/wish/191149769 Is it helpful to spend some specific time in seminars etc. chatting to students about assessment/feedback https://padlet.com/lacorbynista/rjbxatidfg7o/wish/191150143 2017-09-26 09:26:00 UTC https://padlet.com/lacorbynista/rjbxatidfg7o/wish/191150143 is there a risk of grade bias in student evaluations of lecturers https://padlet.com/lacorbynista/rjbxatidfg7o/wish/191150544 2017-09-26 09:27:43 UTC https://padlet.com/lacorbynista/rjbxatidfg7o/wish/191150544 https://padlet.com/lacorbynista/rjbxatidfg7o/wish/191164977 Does UEA have a proactive plan to develop high scoring REF returnable case studies?]]> 2017-09-26 10:28:02 UTC https://padlet.com/lacorbynista/rjbxatidfg7o/wish/191164977 Given current political 'headwinds' limiting ability of (Conservative) politicians to put up fees, the major 'carrot' for TEF compliance beyond comparative advantage as a differentiator to students might not be active in future. Will this limit the relevance of TEF in the coming years? https://padlet.com/lacorbynista/rjbxatidfg7o/wish/193328757 2017-10-03 09:42:22 UTC https://padlet.com/lacorbynista/rjbxatidfg7o/wish/193328757
