Sustainable HE Futures Curriculum Framework
The N-TUTORR Curriculum Framework is a practical resource, designed by partners across the Technological University sector in collaboration with subject experts to support this process.
The framework considers themes through three distinct categories.
- Rationale– The theory behind the specific theme. What is it and why is it important to a substantive and meaningful learning experience?
- Implementation – How can this theme practically manifest in the learning environment as well as assessment design?
- Supports – What are the key resources to consider in relation to this theme?
By ensuring all staff are supported in their understanding and implementation of the above themes, N-TUTORR seeks to facilitate their ubiquitous and transformative presence in the learning environment beyond the project’s conclusion.
All seven N-TUTORR partners have either adopted the framework as-is, or have extended it, or have mapped/aligned to existing institutional frameworks for curriculum design.
The ‘Curriculum Framework Toolkit’ was developed collaboratively by members of the Stream 2 Working Group. Each version of the Toolkit links to local resources within the individual HEI. Variations of the toolkit have been adapted locally and are being rolled out for use by the Teaching and Learning departments.
