Talk About “your” Teaching And Learning (TATAL)
HERDSA 2019 pre-conference workshop: Talk About “your” Teaching And Learning (TATAL)
Online activities commence Tuesday 18th June. Pre-conference workshop date = 2nd July.
Is it time to ‘hit the pause button’ and reflect on my teaching? Do I have a teaching philosophy? Well, TATAL might be for you.
The 9th HERDSA TATAL workshop offers an opportunity to share, reflect and review the values and beliefs that underlie your approach to teaching and learning. We’re ‘flipping out’ in Auckland HERDSA TATAL this year. The day-long pre-conference workshop on 2nd July (with a working lunch – provided) is supported by an online pre-conference learning experience, starting 18th June.
Following the conference, you can continue the experience with the workshop group to develop a teaching portfolio, suitable for a HERDSA Fellowship or HEA Fellowship application.
Express your interest TODAY: http://bit.ly/TATAL-2019-EOI
Online registration opens Monday 17th June: https://www.herdsa2019.auckland.ac.nz/program/pre-conference-workshops/

Workshop on Transitioning Teaching Innovation into Research Publications
Friday, 24th May, 2-4pm
The aim of this workshop is for participants to gain insight into the fields of scholarship and research of learning and teaching within the mathematical and statistical sciences.
This workshop will explore such questions as:-
How can teaching innovations be transitioned into a research publication?
What are some expectations and accepted ways of working in mathematics and statistics education research?
What does appropriate research design look like?
Which methodologies are suitable for educational research?
How do I choose a journal or conference for my scholarly work?
What is different between educational research and discipline research in the mathematical and statistical sciences?
Via hands-on activities and feedback, participants will gain new perspectives into scholarship and academic publishing in educational research within the mathematical and statistical sciences, opening up new possibilities for their research portfolio.
EVENT DETAILS:-
Date: Friday, 24th May, 2-4pm
Location: Room 202a, Learning and Innovation Building (LIB) – Building 17 (map)

Socio-cultural network opportunity
Invitation from Paul Hernandez:
We are looking for practitioners and researchers that have used or are interested in using social and cultural theories of education (e.g. communities of practice, Activity Theory, neo/Vygotskian perspectives, Bourdieusian perspectives, etc.) to understand and/or inform policy or practice in Higher Education Mathematics. We are looking to organise a workshop later in the year to network and establish collaborations in these areas of knowledge. If you are interested, please contact Dr Paul Hernandez Martinez at phernandezmartinez@swin.edu.au

Calgary, Alberta, CANADA
CALL FOR PROPOSALS
Submit your proposal by December 13, 2018
The Taylor Institute for Teaching and Learning invites all members of the academic community – students, faculty, staff and postdoctoral scholars to explore experiential learning — and the scholarship, approaches, practices and issues that surround it — in the postsecondary context.
We also encourage potential presenters to volunteer as peer-reviewers for the conference proposal adjudication process. Reviewers can expect to spend two to three hours of their time adjudicating between seven to eight proposals. It is not necessary to present at the conference nor to register as a delegate to volunteer as a reviewer – login or create an account and complete: Profile -> Roles -> Reviewer.

AustMS/AMSI Teaching Seminar Series
Date & Time: Tuesday 27 November 2018, 2pm (AEDT – GMT+11)
Speaker: Katherine Seaton (Latrobe)
Title: Integrating integrity
Abstract: Mathematics tasks of the type assigned to undergraduates are overlooked in the academic integrity literature, and in much of the instructional material for students about misconduct. In this talk, I will present an overview of my forthcoming e-book which begins to address this lack of specific and targeted information. In particular, I will discuss what mathematics can apply from the general scholarship, and from areas like computer science which have, by way of contrast, developed a large body of discipline-specific literature. I will then go on to present some of the 26 scenarios provided as on-line or in-class discussion starters in the book, which will be published as an open educational resource by La Trobe University’s e-Bureau early next year.

Educational Developers’ Caucus Annual Conference 2019
When: 19th – 22nd Feb
Where: Online
We are pleased to announce that we are now accepting proposals for the Educational Developers’ Caucus 2019 Conference: Positive Resilience and the Future of ED(C). The conference is going online in 2019, and will run daily from 12 to 3pm EST between February 19th and 22nd. There will be two types of presentations: concurrent sessions and the EDC Showcase.
As the nature of our work, our administrators, and our commitment to our own development constantly evolves, it is important to develop positive resiliency skills. For this year’s Educational Developers’ Caucus (EDC) annual conference, we ask you to think about how educational developers’ think, interact, enact, and engage with their practice and how EDC can (or should) facilitate this. We also ask you to think about educational development in general, and more specifically how we can support ourselves and others in an increasingly busy and complex world.
More information about the EDC 2019 Conference theme, format, and the complete call for proposals can be found on the EDC Conference website: https://edc-conference.com/home/2019-conference/call-for-proposals/
The deadline to submit a proposal for a concurrent session is Tuesday, October 30th, 2018, and the deadline to submit a proposal for an EDC Showcase is Friday, November 30th, 2018.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Celia Popovic atcpopovic@yorku.ca.

Pacific Territory Education Reform @ Auckland NZ
Theme – Educational pathways for Pacific learners
The learner-centered programme will be based around three stages of a Pacific learner’s journey through tertiary education under the following sub-themes:
- Supporting learners to shape and start their educational pathways
What can we do to support Pacific learners to shape their education pathway? - Supporting learners in their educational pathways
What do we do well to respond to Pacific learners? What could we do better? - The outcomes from educational pathways
How will we know our system is working for Pacific learners?
This year, for the first time, we are introducing three Talanoa sessions to enable delegates to discuss and debate key issues relating to each of the three sub-themes.
Date: 28 – 29 September
Where: Auckland, NZ
