Abstract

New members of academic teaching staff will encounter any number of issues and problems in their first year. This paper discusses the issues encountered in the first year of a lecturing post and the efforts put into writing and compiling a new, core level 3 module. The paper explores experiences of curriculum development, discusses lessons learnt and exhibits reflections based on the knowledge accumulated from attendance on a Professional Development Programme designed specifically for new teaching staff. Emphasis rests on the design and implementation of the course, with specific focus on intentions, content, assessment and delivery. Reflections on peer and student feedback are also provided.
