Kortkursusse

Die Assessering, Leer en KI-kortkursus is 'n nuut hersiene kortkursus wat inhoud van die vorige Assessering-kortkursus en die vorige Kunsmatige Intelligensie (KI) Geletterdheid in onderrig-leer-assessering (OLA) kortkursus kombineer. Dit is daarop gemik om geleenthede te skep om OLA in die era van KI te herontwerp. Deelnemers sal sleutelkonsepte ondersoek soos die uiteenlopende doeleindes van assessering, konstruktiewe belyning, terugvoer, portuurgroep- en selfassessering, en die rol van akademiese bewyse in die vorming van effektiewe praktyke.

The Peer-to-Peer Facilitation of Learning short course is the only CTL short course aimed at students. It is an institutional standardised training short course that can be accessed by all peer facilitators who have been formally appointed by faculties across the university. This course may be used to supplement any training that already exists in faculties or may be used to formally train peer facilitators for faculties. This is a fully online training short course. The course is registered and approved as a co-curriculum offering at SU. 

The CTL also offers the annual Professional Educational Development for Academics (PREDAC) short course for newly appointed academics at Stellenbosch University. PREDAC is an official SU short course aimed at the professional educational development of academics in their teaching role.

The Scholarship of Educational Leadership (SoEL) short course focuses on both leadership in and scholarship of teaching-learning-assessment (TLA). The idea is that we grow a critical mass of TLA leaders at SU, which is in line with the professionalisation of the teaching role as described in the SU Teaching-Learning Policy (2025). The short course draws on two bodies of knowledge: Academic Leadership (AL) and the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) and aims to bring conceptual frameworks from these two bodies of knowledge into dialogue with each other. These conceptual frameworks offer participants theoretical lenses through which to interrogate and reflect on their own practices as educational leaders. The SoEL short course takes a broad view of educational leadership practice and includes other supporting practices, namely reflection, change management, innovation, and contextual awareness. Participants in the short course are one senior academic per faculty per cohort, and participation is via nomination by the Vice Dean (T&L) of each faculty.

The objective of the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) short course is to assist teaching academics to conceptualise and design a SoTL research study. Participants will learn how to refine their research questions, consult literature, use educational theory as a lens, design an appropriate methodology, and gather and interpret d​ata. Participants will be able to translate this into a clear and comprehensive draft ​proposal that adheres to Stellenbosch University's ethical and institutional permission principles.
