Many University faculty members do not get a formal opportunity to undergo training in teaching and learning before they start teaching. This means that they often have to learn the ‘hard way’ on the job, and it can affect the quality of delivery. The Office of the Dean, Makerere University School of Public Health, in collaboration with the Department of Epidemiology and Biostatistics, MakSPH, and ResilientAfrica Network (RAN) announces the 2024 edition of the course titled: Fundamentals of Teaching and Learning. The course will run from Monday 02nd to Friday 06th September 2024, only in the morning (08.00am – 11.00 am). The course will be delivered in dual mode: Both by e-Learning (through the Zoom platform) and face-to-face (at the RAN Lower Lab, MakSPH Annex in Kololo). The course is open to both junior and senior faculty, research fellows, honorary lecturers, and academic program administrators from Makerere University College of Health Sciences wishing to enhance their teaching skills, to improve teaching and learning.

Interested applicants are requested to send a short expression of interest, including their designation, by email, to: Ms. Harriet Adong, Director Communications and Knowledge Management at the ResilientAfrica Network, using the following email: hadong@ranlab.org. Admission will be on a first-come-first-served basis. Applicants should be ready to take off 5 mornings of intense work during the week indicated. Come and discover the frontiers of teaching and learning.
