Final Reflections

My teaching portfolio, as shared on this site, documents my reflections on teaching. This concluding document overviews the whole experience of being a student in a course on higher education teaching and reflects on the ways in which going through the process of doing the Postgraduate Diploma in Higher Education has made me think differently both about how I teach and how I learn.

On References

In this portfolio I have used a referencing style that combines traditional Harvard-style referencing and new forms of referencing involving the provision of hyperlinks to the sources used. Throughout the portfolio, I have provided hyperlinks to the resources concerned as part of my in-text references. In addition, I have drawn up a conventional full list of references used in the portfolio. Those who are interested in new forms of citation using hyperlinks might want to read this Slate article on the topic.
