*The University of Warwick* Many teachers find international students less problematic to assess than UK students and more than a few say they are 'a joy to teach'.  On the other hand, many have concerns linked to students' varied language skills, background knowledge, and familiarity with UK assessment methods. This session concentrates on how teachers of law and related disciplines can assess students' work and provide feedback, using practices that are fair, reliable and efficient.   The session draws on resources from the "Teaching International Students' project":http://www.heacademy.ac.uk/ourwork/teachingandlearning/internationalisation/studentlifecycle and provides opportunities for addressing participants' practice, sharing ideas and considering problems. *Fee* There is no charge for this event, however, we ask that once a booking has been confirmed at least 48 hours notice should be given if you are unable to attend the event. A cancellation charge of £50 will be made in the following circumstances: * less than 48 hours notice of non-attendance given * no prior notice of non-attendance given. Another person may be substituted from the same institution as long as the details of the substitute are received in writing. *_Please note that as there are limited free places on this event, we can only accept one booking per institution._* *Catering* Tea, coffee and mineral water will be provided. Please bring your own packed lunch. *Timing* Start time: 13.00 (own packed lunch 12.30) Tea break: 14.30 End time: 16.30 *Further information* Hansa Surti Events Coordinator Email: h.surti@warwick.ac.uk ]]> 2011-05-16T00:00:00 2011-05-16T00:00:00 <![CDATA[Workshop: teaching Islamic Studies in Wales]]> A cross-displinary workshop for practitioners to network, gain a sense of the different ways in which Islamic Studies is taught in the Welsh context, share practice and discuss region-specific issues.
