In September 2022 the Royal Historical Society, in partnership with History UK, organised an interactive workshop hosted by Professor Jamie Wood (Lincoln). This workshop aimed to open discussions on the challenges and opportunities of teaching History at UK universities, and provide higher education teachers with effective pedagogical skills and techniques.
In this fifth session, Dr Michael Barany discusses ‘Module Design and Delivery: challenges and opportunities’. Michael’s presentation focuses on module design, teaching methods and pedagogical technologies for teaching students from varied disciplinary backgrounds. Michael is Senior Lecturer in the History of Science at the University of Edinburgh.
This session (which runs for 50 minutes) is introduced and hosted by Jamie Wood (Professor of Education and History at the University of Lincoln) for the Royal Historical Society and History UK. Subtitles/captions are available for this video.
