Practical Curricular Examples from Faculties

This page presents practical curricular and co-curricular examples from the Faculties. These examples may vary in the degree to which they are adaptable in other Faculties and Schools, but they are worth exploring, given the brevity of the videos. The resources have been sourced from the Scientia Education Academy HUI and “Teaching News You Can Use” projects, and from call-outs to Faculties, Schools, and individuals known to engage in exceptional curricular practice. The list of resources will continue to build.

Please contact [email protected] or [email protected] if you would like to suggest the addition of a resource.
