Student Engagement forum:

The Centre for Learning and Teaching is pleased to invite you to a forum specifically focussing on Student Engagement, student experience and student achievement.  

This forum jointly convened by the University of Brighton Student Union sabbaticals and officers, and the Centre for Learning and Teaching will focus on issues and practical concerns about student engagement, experience and achievement.  By bringing together anyone among the staff and student body interested in considering what we are doing and can do to celebrate the successes and tackle needs and issues, such as retention, employability, staff student interface, learning and teaching in different contexts, the quality of student life, and issues arising from the NSS such as feedback and assessment.  

It promises to be very lively and engaged so please click here to indicate you would like to be involved.

Agenda: as well as ‘what’s on top’ we will be specifically looking at  

• L&T at Brighton (NSS feedback) - new L&T strategy which could inform the student charter - what is the students' voice about all this?
• QAA audit of student engagement - how does Brighton go about capturing the student voice and involving students in quality assurance processes? is this important and why? how can we improve this?
