Using video-reflection and peer mentoring to enhance tutors’ teaching
Rob Wass and Tracy Rogers
Tutors have an important teaching role in higher education (HE), but rarely receive professional development beyond one-off generic workshops or seminars. Any feedback on their teaching is typically in the form of an evaluation, rather than focussed on enhancing tutors’ teaching practice. To address this gap, we devised a professional development programme that incorporated video-recorded observations, informal student feedback, self-reflection, and peer mentoring.
