Academic Integrity, Digital Learning, Education for Sustainable Development (ESD)

About this initiative

1. Underpinned by the main theories, principles and concepts, arrive at a shared understanding of the meaning of decolonization in higher education and why this is important for T&L and assessment specifically in the context of SETU. 2. Develop and demonstrate the application of appropriate practical strategies for including principles of decolonization in our teaching, learning, assessment and pedagogical approaches. 3. Critically examine and iterate the practical strategies for decolonization which have been developed. 4. Develop the skills to assess our own teaching and learning practice, and make theoretically informed decisions about when and how to apply appropriate decolonialization approaches.
