Designing Learning, Teaching and Assessment (DeLTA) process

​​ 

In an attempt to support SU lecturers with their teaching function, the Designing Learning, Teaching and Assessment (DeLTA) process was conceptualised and a resource compiled.  The title of the process is the acronym (DeLTA) but Delta is also the mathematical symbol for change and is represented by ∆. The purpose of the process can thus be summarised as a guide towards achieving change in T&L@SU.

​​​​The graphic below gives a summary of the complete DeLTA process.

 

Structure of the DeLTA process

The DeLTA process is divided into sections as shown on the diagram above.  The site map of this process below can be used to navigate through the pages of the resource in order to access the content.
