Partnership
Education at 桃色视频 will be characterised by staff and students working in partnership to co-create the educational experience
Our goals:
Reciprocal Engagement
We will 鈥�
Ensure reciprocal engagement between staff and students, and that student representation is embedded within our governance structures and communication practises
We will achieve this by 鈥�
- Continuing to support the student representative system, the network of Student-Staff Liaison Committees and the introduction of Faculty Student Engagement Coordinators
- Ensuring there is student representation and participation in all our review processes, including the Institutional Teaching and Learning Review, survey action planning, and module and programme reviews
- Supporting the training of student representatives and agree sharing of information between the University and SU so as to develop a fully-informed student voice at all levels
- Communicating the principles of reciprocal engagement and model reciprocal engagement throughout governance efforts
Priorities 2018/19: Prioritising student engagement
We will continue to work with students to ensure that their voice is heard and that we co-produce the educational experience together.
Work in 2018/19 will include: enhancing student representation; working with students to develop an inclusive curriculum; enhancement of student communications around the Education Strategy; and a focus on developing the Director of Student Experience and Progression (DSEP) role.
Student Experience Consistency
We will 鈥�
Demonstrate commitment to the provision of a consistent high-quality education experience for all students
We will achieve this by 鈥�
- Exchanging good teaching practice across the disciplines and all levels of study and utilising our new academic governance structures
- Embracing academic and pedagogical differences between disciplines and departments and clarifying such differences to students to advance their learning
- Reviewing the needs of students on interdisciplinary programmes, joint programmes and students who engage in modules across the disciplines, to inform us where convergence on infrastructural arrangements are required
- Ensuring that external accountability needs (PSRBs, employers, alumni, TEF and others) inform our information provision for students, and information-gathering about students and their studies
Case study: Improving the visibility and use of reading lists
Improving access to reading lists can help enhance the student experience. This case study looks at how, by working collaboratively with University and academic departments, the Library has set about increasing the visibility of reading lists and ensuring they are available in one place, something that provides consistency for all disciplines/levels and is particularly supportive of interdisciplinary study. This initiative is ongoing and over the last two years has provided many learning outcomes that will inform service developments and provision for years to come.
Inclusive Curriculum
We will 鈥�
Sustain and increase our efforts to ensure that a 桃色视频 Education is effective, ambitious, and accessible for all students
We will achieve this by 鈥�
- Developing methods of inclusive engagement to ensure academic practices perform better for our diverse community of students
- Engaging in rigorous review of cross-sector data to establish which groups of students at 桃色视频 achieve less well than others and learn from peers where similar students achieved better
- Developing clear expectations for staff who teach or support learning, on ensuring a 桃色视频 Education is inclusive and open to all
- Engaging with student interests (such as curriculum liberation aims) to explore how curriculum enhancement can be achieved
