"Biggs and Tang, now with Kennedy, have ensured this new edition
remains an international leader for university teaching for the
next decade." Denise Chalmers AM, Emeritus Professor, University of
Western Australia, Australia "This book, a fifth edition, can truly
be called a "classic" on the topic of teaching, learning and
curriculum design in higher education." Michael Prosser, Honorary
Professorial Fellow, Centre for the Study of Higher Education,
University of Melbourne, Australia "You should be inspired to
increase the quality of your teaching, your learning, and your
learning about teaching." John R. Kirby, Professor Emeritus of
Educational Psychology, Queen's University, Canada The concept of
constructive alignment has supported generations of students and
teachers within higher education. It is a 'backward design' method
of teaching where the student outcomes are identified first and the
teacher then designs teaching activities to enable students to
achieve those outcomes, assessing how well they have been achieved.
Each chapter outlines how to design the learning outcomes, teaching
and assessments for success in learning. This updated edition of
Teaching for Quality Learning at University: * Provides a
comprehensive, research-based theory of teaching for teacher
reflection * Outlines how educational technology can be used in
constructively aligned teaching * Helps staff developers to provide
support for staff and departments in line with institutional
policies * Offers a framework for quality assurance and quality
enhancement across a whole institution Teaching for Quality
Learning at University continues to be used as a framework for
designing higher education teaching systems globally and is
essential reading for those in the field. John Biggs has held
Chairs in Education in Canada, Australia, and Hong Kong. He has
published extensively on student learning and the implications of
his research for teaching. He developed his concept of constructive
alignment at the University of Hong Kong, first outlined in
Teaching for Quality Learning at University in 1999. Catherine Tang
has over 15 years of teaching experience in tertiary education and
is the former Head of the Centre for Learning, Teaching and
Supervision at the Education University of Hong Kong (the then Hong
Kong Institute of Education) and the Educational Development Centre
at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University. Gregor Kennedy is the
Deputy Vice-Chancellor (Academic) at the University of Melbourne,
Australia and a Professor of Higher Education in the Melbourne
Centre for the Study of Higher Education.
