This course is offered by a CHERTL on an annual basis and works with tutors from all faculties.
Access Engage Workbook and Course Materials
The Engage workbook and related course materials are available for use by tutors as a self-study resource or as a companion to the accredited short course. The materials support reflection, dialogue, and informed practice in tutorial teaching.
The book is designed to work as a companion text for groups of tutors participating in CHERTL's accredited Engage short course in small group facilitation. It may also be used as a self-study text for individual tutors, although collaboration with peers is likely to strengthen engagement.
