Learning and Teaching in Higher Education, spring 2021

Be prepared to discuss the reading material on our next session.

Short background for this assignment: https://www.aalto.fi/sites/g/files/flghsv161/files/2018-11/aalto_feedbacksystem_2018_kek.pdf

Read one or both of these (or I could still recommend you to read both of them, in order to get a larger picture)

1. The Quality Handbook of Aalto or if there is one for your own school. Aalto Handbook (focus on chapters about Quality management under topic Governance): https://www.aalto.fi/en/aalto-handbook
2. Aalto University Audit report 2016 

The second one (Audit report) is rather long - please read selectively parts describing teaching in different degree levels (in chapter 6 pages 37-57), key strengths and development areas.

More information, if interested:

• National audit & quality systems in Finnish higher education: https://karvi.fi/en/higher-education/
  Karvi (FINHEEC) is a national body, which is the responsible actor in the audits, although in Aalto-audit we had an international panel.
• European Union-level: http://www.accreditedqualifications.org.uk/european-qualifications-framework-eqf.html
