Challenges of Quality in Learning
and Teaching
Gwen van der Velden, Director of Learning & Teaching Enhancement
University of Bath
Association of University Administrators
South West conference, Bristol 5/5/15
This session may help you to…
Engage with the ongoing quality assessment debate at
national level, building on an understanding of core
principles in quality management and with due reference
to the interests of those with a stake in HE quality
relate arguments made in the national debate to the
discussions that may take place in your own institution
(perhaps) add new angles to your consideration of quality
challenges within your own institution
A challenging context:
from purdah to progress?
 Unpredictable national political interests
 Review of QA in HE
 International pressures and interests
Quality mechanisms (national)
 National accreditation of curriculum
 Unified teaching standards (qualifications?)
 ‘the market will sort it’
 Self regulatory arrangements
 Funding dependent regulation
 Legal protection consequences
Quality concepts
 Quality is achieving academic standards
 Quality is when teaching efforts meet learner
needs
 Quality works when society’s needs are met
effectively
 Quality works when the institution meets its
own performance indicators
Behind the concepts of quality
assurance
Key questions:
Who decides when quality ‘occurs’?
What values are institutions accounting for?
What is measurable?
Who do we wish to convince?
Quality occurs when academic
standards are reached
 Academic (and professional body?)
expectations are to be met. Excellence is
recognised
 Standards and quality go together: reaching
standards means good quality teaching
 Academics oversee quality (assessment and
peer review)
 Will this concept suffice?
Quality occurs when teaching
efforts match learner needs
 Engaging students in quality management
and understanding pedagogy
 Staff and students work together to establish
quality
 Can we measure this quality? And how?
 Can we evidence it for accountability?
 Will this concept suffice?
Quality occurs when society’s
needs are met
 HE produces the graduates that industry
needs/ that society needs/ that the global
future needs/ politicians state are needed
 The needs of those who pay for students’
education are met
 Employability is a core quality indicator
 How is quality evidenced to society?
 Will this concept suffice?
Quality is achieved when institutions
achieve according to resources and abilities
 Quality performance indicators show the
institution/ disciplines perform well
 Publishable quality indicators are achieved
and require no more than affordable
investment
 A myriad of qualitative and quantitative
indicators are required
 Will this approach suffice?
Thanks for your attention…
Any questions?

Challenges of Quality in Teaching and Learning - Gwen van der velden

  • 1. Challenges of Quality in Learning and Teaching Gwen van der Velden, Director of Learning & Teaching Enhancement University of Bath Association of University Administrators South West conference, Bristol 5/5/15
  • 2. This session may help you to… Engage with the ongoing quality assessment debate at national level, building on an understanding of core principles in quality management and with due reference to the interests of those with a stake in HE quality relate arguments made in the national debate to the discussions that may take place in your own institution (perhaps) add new angles to your consideration of quality challenges within your own institution
  • 3. A challenging context: from purdah to progress?  Unpredictable national political interests  Review of QA in HE  International pressures and interests
  • 4. Quality mechanisms (national)  National accreditation of curriculum  Unified teaching standards (qualifications?)  ‘the market will sort it’  Self regulatory arrangements  Funding dependent regulation  Legal protection consequences
  • 5. Quality concepts  Quality is achieving academic standards  Quality is when teaching efforts meet learner needs  Quality works when society’s needs are met effectively  Quality works when the institution meets its own performance indicators
  • 6. Behind the concepts of quality assurance Key questions: Who decides when quality ‘occurs’? What values are institutions accounting for? What is measurable? Who do we wish to convince?
  • 7. Quality occurs when academic standards are reached  Academic (and professional body?) expectations are to be met. Excellence is recognised  Standards and quality go together: reaching standards means good quality teaching  Academics oversee quality (assessment and peer review)  Will this concept suffice?
  • 8. Quality occurs when teaching efforts match learner needs  Engaging students in quality management and understanding pedagogy  Staff and students work together to establish quality  Can we measure this quality? And how?  Can we evidence it for accountability?  Will this concept suffice?
  • 9. Quality occurs when society’s needs are met  HE produces the graduates that industry needs/ that society needs/ that the global future needs/ politicians state are needed  The needs of those who pay for students’ education are met  Employability is a core quality indicator  How is quality evidenced to society?  Will this concept suffice?
  • 10. Quality is achieved when institutions achieve according to resources and abilities  Quality performance indicators show the institution/ disciplines perform well  Publishable quality indicators are achieved and require no more than affordable investment  A myriad of qualitative and quantitative indicators are required  Will this approach suffice?
  • 11. Thanks for your attention… Any questions?
