ISLAMABAD:

A capacity enhancement session titled ‘Reflective Practice in Teaching and Learning’ for fellows of the Interim Placement of Fresh PhDs Programme (IPFP) was held virtually under the aegis of the National Academy of Higher Education (NAHE) the other day.

The NAHE is an autonomous institution operating under the Higher Education Commission (HEC) to improve the quality of teaching, research, and governance in Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) across Pakistan.

Over 200 IPFP fellows from higher education institutions across Pakistan attended the virtual workshop. As the IPFP fellows go through their placements at universities and institutions across Pakistan, the NAHE intends to touch base with them, refresh parts of their learning through the National Faculty Development Programme and assess the effectiveness of this programme.

They also participated in learning activities and reflective sessions with Dr Shazia Awan of the NAHE and Dalhousie University, and Dr Sana Waheed of NUST.

Dr Awan explained what it meant to be a reflective practitioner and how being one can help them think through the wider impact of their teaching practice.
