Hibernia College Teaching, Learning and Assessment StrategyThe Hibernia College Teaching, Learning and Assessment Strategy has been developed by a working group of the Hibernia College Academic Board and involved extensive consultation with stakeholders including students, Alumni, Faculty and external stakeholders. This Strategy has been developed during a period of great change in Irish society generally but particularly in higher education. These changes include a greater diversification of the student body, greater than ever demand for flexible learning and a move to a performance-based funding model for Higher Education Authority (HEA) funded institutions. Alongside this, the National Forum for the Enhancement of Teaching and Learning was established by the Minister for Education and Skills to enhance the quality of the learning experience for all students at third level, be they full-time, part-time or flexible learners. The Strategy sets out six distinctive attributes of Hibernia College’s graduates that go beyond disciplinary or technical knowledge. It then establishes the six Hibernia College’s Teaching, Learning and Assessment Priority Areas and concludes with a commitment to providing the best possible learning experiences and to producing highly employable graduates.
