Description

This resource was created from the SATLE 2018 initiative: Higher Education Language Educators’ Competences (HELECs ).

Benefit of this resource and how to make the best use of it

The HELECs framework of competences comprises seven domains, reflecting the multidimensionality of the language educator in higher education. The circular theme chosen for the visualisation of this framework emphasises the absence of a hierarchy between the domains. In other words, educators may identify with or choose any domain relevant to their needs, at any point time. Simply click on the name of the domain to access the corresponding competences.

Each domain is scaffolded by three competence identifiers, labelled Practitioner, Expert and Leader. The identifiers provide structure and support a transformative experience for language educators’ professional development in higher education.

Through the inclusion of insightful provenances and case histories, students are taken on a journey back in time to learn not only from the original donors, but also from the physicians and anatomists who treated and prepared the specimen, offering fascinating insights into the healthcare systems and the education values of the time. Careful consideration was given to which specimens were to be showcased. Specifically, those over a hundred years old, without identifying features or sensitive features such as developmental anomalies.
