What our faculty have said about OneHE, and what I appreciate too, is they can go in for a very short amount of time and engage for a few minutes… and they can leave with something they can take back.

I describe [OneHE] as on demand professional development 2.0. There are other things that are available in the market but OneHE is really next generation in that the videos are so current [and] they allow for that interaction which is unique. So faculty as they move through the mini course are not only interacting with each other, but they’re actually interacting with the presenters and the experts in the field who will respond to their posts. I find that a really unique option within OneHE.

It provides both the research to support the practical changes you’re about to make, as well as practical tips, which I find to be the most useful.

OneHE’s wide range of professional development resources in contemporary learning and teaching themes enable ICMS to scale capability development across our faculty without having to build it all ourselves! Academics like the short, video-based courses that are underpinned by the current literature. They can dip into the content or go further and use the resources as a springboard to more scholarly activity.

We were looking for a way to provide ongoing, practical professional development for staff and OneHE was a perfect match for our needs. The courses cover a wide range of topics and …there are lots of great practical hints and tips that are very do-able. Having a private space also means that we can work to build a community of practice within the College and foster ongoing discussion about teaching and learning issues and topics that are relevant to us…The ability for us to select a curated list of recommended courses as well as letting staff explore and pick what is relevant to them is great.

FAQs

OneHE helps educators to develop their teaching practice by providing practical and engaging microlearning on effective teaching in a safe and supportive online community. Each piece of microlearning is designed to help educators make small changes in their teaching practice that they can act on straight away and that will have an impact on student success. The online platform also provides access to a global network of experts and educators, enabling members to connect, collaborate, and share innovative teaching and learning practices. Available on demand 24/7, the support available through OneHE is designed to complement and enhance an institution’s existing professional development opportunities.

OneHE microlearning is practical and engaging, bitesize continuous professional development that can be completed in roughly 20 minutes or less. Each course or resource is developed by an acknowledged expert in their field to provide educators with the essential information and guidance they need to apply a concept or practice immediately, to improve student outcomes. To allow for extended learning, courses and resources are linked together into Learning Paths. Learning Paths can have a thematic focus such as universal design for learning (UDL), be centred on an approach such as facilitating online learning, or OneHE can create bespoke learning paths for institutions.

New content is added each week to the OneHE platform.

Courses are structured in a consistent way to provide familiarity and reduce cognitive load. Each course answers important questions that create the environment for change and the adoption of new practice: what is this practice and how does it help students?; how can the practice be applied?; what is the evidence base for this practice? Each step in a course encourages reflection and sharing the experience of applying the lessons in an educator’s practice that supports peer learning.

Digital badges are awarded for course and learning path completion, for contributions to the community that support social learning and for evidencing the impact of learning in an educators teaching practice.
