Do Initial Training Courses Have an Impact on University Teaching? The Evidence From Two Evaluative Studies of One Course

Pages 254-262 | Published online: 10 Dec 2010
 

Abstract

Initial training courses for teachers in higher education are now widespread in many countries and about to be given increased importance in the UK by the new Institute for Teaching and Learning but there appears to have been virtually no research into their effectiveness. This paper summarizes evidence from two evaluative studies of the initial training course at Oxford Brookes University, UK, and concludes that some claims can be made for the course's effectiveness.
