Use the “My Engagement” (LDE system) to facilitate
personal tutor-tutee discussions about engagement. ·
Skew the Level 3/4 Personal Tutoring schedule so
that it is weighted in favour of Semester 1 where it is likely to have more of
a profound impact, ·
Offer informal networking through social
activities during the year, recognising the ‘new breed’ of indoor
entertainment centres e.g. PINS on Duke St and Ghetto Golf on Stanhope St. ·
Programme community sites enable FAQs to be collated
and responded to efficiently, rather than through individual emails. ·
Offer regular drop in surgery sessions within the Student
Social Zone: even if these are not used by students, they will be aware of
staff presence. ·
Publish a regular programme newsletter to
publicise activities, celebrate successes and share contemporary research
stories. ·
In lecture theatres, Vevox Q&A provides a
channel for students to submit comments and queries. Key principles: o
Create a safe space with house rules and
moderation, o
Number of ‘likes’ can indicate strength of
feeling, o
Staff can respond to comments verbally in class or
retrospectively, via upload to Canvas. o
The Vevox survey tool can provide useful medium
for mid-module evaluation as students can complete in their own time. Acknowledgement:
