CIE provides a variety of support resources, including:

Spotlight guides - Introductory

Spotlight Guides are concise, research-based 2-page guides focusing on a particular aspect of innovative curriculum practice. Typically, they include short definitions, a range of practical tips under their ‘Putting it into Practice’ sections and strategies to meet anticipated challenges. Some take the form of infographics, usually accompanying a textual guide.

DigiGuides - Introductory+

DigiGuides help you choose and apply appropriate digital tools and pedagogies to innovate in your curriculum. They typically provide detailed guidance on how to use a specific technology to enhance your digital education designs. They take a range of forms including video and text, often with practical illustrations.

DIY guides - Introductory+

DIY guides are longer than Spotlight Guides and support academic staff to make changes to their learning, teaching, assessment or curriculum design activities. They detail a range of specific practical ideas and can be in text or video formats.

On Demand - Going deeper

These asynchronous Canvas courses will allow you to explore a subject in more depth, growing your critical understanding of pedagogical topics and helping prepare you to apply the approaches you learn about to your own learning and teaching context. On Demand complements the range of CIE workshops, guides and resources that are on offer.

Case studies - Examples

These include a range of case studies shared by colleagues from across the University and beyond about their curriculum-based learning and teaching innovations. Some share tiny changes, while others are more detailed. They take a range of forms including audio/podcast conversations, video and text. They can inspire you and provide practical tips on implementing new practice.

Toolkits - Putting it into practice

Toolkits are designed to give you all the tools you need to implement an innovation. Toolkits gather together practical tools such as audit and reflective tools, adaptable templates for class activities and assessment designs, ‘plug and play’ resources you can share with your students to enable them to engage with your innovation, lesson plans and teaching guides, etc. They will also suggest a small number of quick wins to get you started on larger curriculum changes.
