A core focus of this project was to provide continuous professional development for STEM staff working with students with VI. This has been achieved through the development of a significant online resource - STEM Learning & Teaching Reconfigured - that covers a broad spectrum of STEM-related teaching and learning curricula including lab work. The resource is designed to be a 'one-stop-shop' for those staff involved in admissions, student support, teaching, assessment and placements.
STEM Learning & Teaching Reconfigured
The online resource is divided into the following sections:
(1) Reasons for Change: This section covers all the reasons for change which may range from reasons of equality, reducing barriers, the law, and a realisation that making resources accessible and easy to use tends to help all students. It includes:
How to Change
(2) How to Change: This section provides ideas about how to change, adapt and make the most of teaching and learning resources by offering them in a variety of formats. It includes:
