From Pilots to Principles to Policy • Demand for new capabilities, commitment to the region, competition • 2017: Framing Principles for the 21C project • 2018: New course architectures, Partnership Pedagogy (School Pilots) New curriculum elements (Flagship Curriculum Projects) • 2019: New Course design Policy • 21C Framing Principles • New Course Structure and Pedagogy Principles • New Course Process and Quality Assurance Principles • Consultation on the principles (communication) • Outputs embedded in the new policy, procedures and guidelines
The RED HAT Group • Brian Stout (Chair) • Xinni Du (Learning Transformations) • Andrew Page (SoM) • Gavin Smith (Learning Transformations) • Christina Walters (CDM) • Kim Heckenberg (Digital Futures) • Elfriede Sangkuhl (SoL) • Carol Russell (Learning Transformations) • Rebecca O’Reilly (SoN) • Katrina Sandbach (SoHCA) • Royson Valore (Office of Quality & Performance) We plan to ask the Red Hat group the following questions: Are the principles reasonable to build our course design policy from? Do the principles align with the degrees we are currently offering at Western Sydney University? (Benchmarking) Is there a reasonable roadmap between what is being offered currently and the 21C vision for courses? What feedback do you have on the rationale behind each principle?
