1. Case study of teaching practice ‘Know and respond to your students’ diverse needs’

For the three case studies, I have:

• Given a brief background of my teaching context.
• Presented a thorough evaluation of the issue, drawing on (e.g.)my own experience, feedback from students, colleagues’ perspectives, and ideas from the literature:
• Identified implications and specific actions arising from the evaluation.
• Committed to next steps through e.g. a timed action plan.
• Used links and cited sources where appropriate, with a terminal reference list in the Harvard style:
• Added each case study to my blog here:

Blog 1 Case study of teaching practice

use evidence-informed approaches to know and respond to your students’ diverse needs
I will start to work with the Professional Standards Framework – see Miro board screenshot from our session as an example.

• My teaching is on the Diploma in Professional studies (sandwich year out in industry) for design stdents across 7 areas of desing from UX to spatial design.
• My example of ‘responding to my students diverse needs’ is making sure cultural and religious sensitivities are adhered to for their 2 min formative assessment video. We had feedback that one of the videos was not as inclusive to working class students as it could be so we made sure to include a. much more diverse range of cultural expriences in the next DPS ‘intro to year 2’ lectures.
  
• Identified implications and specific actions arising from the evaluation:
  The implications were that the working class student didn’t feel as enabled to join DPS in year 3 so I shared my working class experience of DPS with them alongside a range of other year 3 examples to address the feedback and to be more inclusive
• Committed to next steps through e.g. a timed action plan:
  The timed action of commitment included adding in a wider variety of 2 min videos and holding both an in person and online session for the students to share and peer review their videos on padlet
• Used links and cited sources where appropriate, with a terminal reference 
  We shared the course handbook with examples of how we support the working class student and references the RCA WCSAA
