Training for real: starting in the University
conference contribution
posted on 2018-02-12, 15:09 authored by Connie V. Nshemereirwe, Albert RugumayoGraduates of Engineering in Uganda face great challenges in the work place as they are expected to be fully prepared
to start work with little or no further training. In view of this, training has to begin at the University, where it has been
found that the quality of teaching is poor, by admission of the lecturers themselves. This paper reports on an initiative
by Uganda Martyrs University to systematically analyse the nature of teaching in the Faculty of Building Design, and
to design, develop, implement and evaluate an intervention in the form of training to equip lecturers with basic teaching
skills. It is hoped that this will in turn increase the chances of students being trained for real.
