Congratulations to Mark Huxham, winner of the Ed Wood Teaching Award 2009
The Ed Wood Teaching Award provides an opportunity for bioscience academics to receive national recognition for their outstanding learning and teaching practices. The Award is open to all UK bioscience academics who work in higher education or who teach higher education in a further education establishment. Find out more about the application process for the 2009 Award.
The inaugural Award in 2009 received 19 applications, of which 6 were short listed. Short listed applicants worked with a member of the Centre team to develop a 2 page case study based on: observation of the teaching practice; interviews with the applicant; student questionnaires; and student focus groups. These case studies are available below.
A number of the finalists showcased their ideas at the Science Learning and Teaching Conference 2009 and were presented with a certificate at the conference dinner by Professor Kevan Gartland, Chair of the Centre's Advisory Group and Dean of Life Sciences at Glasgow Caledonian University. The Centre would like to extend their congratulations to all six finalists and the overall winner, Mark Huxham of Edinburgh Napier University who was presented with his award and will receive £500 towards future professional development activity. |
