Abstract
Guest Speaker Address by Dr Mairette Newman, COL Education Specialist: VUSSC, at The University of the West Indies Guardian Life Premium Teaching Award, Mona, Jamaica November 24, 2022.
In an increasingly crises-ridden, unstable world, achievement of excellence in university teaching presents both challenges and opportunities. Resources required for excellence are diverse but chief among those resources is faculty, many of whom have thrived both despite and because of complex challenges they navigated during Covid-19. This address explores three separate but interconnected themes - Covid-19 as a driver of change; resilience and flexibility; and pedagogical design as ‘star’ - as starting points for thinking about how Faculty in a post- pandemic university can reframe, renew, and expand how they engage in teaching and serve their learners in equitable ways. It highlights how transforming thinking and practice associated with feedback, assessment, the role of technology and learner support is key to promoting excellence.
