This Podcast Series has been developed by CPID Staff involved in teaching and engaging in educational research. It consists of podcasts with well-known educational academics and experts, exploring various educational concepts/topics taught on programmes offered by the CPID, and on SATLE funded educational research projects.
Benefit of this resource and how to make the best use of it
The Academic Practice Series provides a rich, accessible set of conversations with leading scholars in higher education, covering critical themes such as action research, relational pedagogies, digital education, academic integrity, immersive technologies, sustainability, and the impact of generative AI. Its benefits include:
1. Evidence‑informed professional development – Each episode connects educators with current research and expert thinking. Staff can deepen their understanding of pedagogical theory while seeing its relevance to real practice in Higher Education.
2. Practical insights for teaching enhancement – The discussions translate abstract concepts—like care in pedagogy, Living Educational Theory, or assessment redesign in the age of AI—into ideas educators can immediately apply in their classrooms.
3. Support for scholarly teaching and SoTL engagement – Many episodes highlight research methodologies and reflective practice. This helps staff build confidence in conducting their own Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) projects or integrating inquiry into their professional work.

This OER guides students through human-in-the-loop software development, demonstrating how AI tools can be effectively supervised, refined, and integrated across the Software Lifecycle. Designed for computing educators and learners, it combines agile practice, teamwork, DISC awareness, testing, and critical reflection on human–AI collaboration.
This OER introduces students to designing and developing AI-powered assistants for agile software development using Flowise (no code). Learners as a team explore Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) and agent-based systems, applying AI to real-world agile practices while considering technical design, evaluation, and cost-aware decision-making
Through a thought-and-action mapping strategy known as interactive management, the current research modelled a unique, collaborative "pathway of impact influences" to describe such considerations from the perspectives of TUS higher management and external stakeholders.
As part of this project small workshops in linear algebra where held both nationally and internationally. The main workshop website is https://sites.google.com/view/tusdcu-linearalgebraworkshop/home
A one day workshop to help bring together early stage researchers to learn and discuss topics in Linear algebra.
