"Partnership between staff and students in Higher Education"

Provisionally entitled “Partnership between staff and students in Higher Education”, Grace Barker (University Mentoring Co-ordinator, Newcastle University) is giving a talk at 5pm on Monday, May 20th, in Room A.2.04 (Schofield).

Organised by Dr Marcus Collins (Department of Politics, History and International Relations (PHIR)), this talk will centre on aspects of student engagement; if you are interested in attending, you might let Marcus know. Further details regarding PHIR peer support initiatives – which include the internationalisation of degrees, peer mentoring to support student transition to University, etc. – are available on the Peer Support Directory and on Learn.

Grace is particularly interested in peer support – further details regarding her work are available on Newcastle University’s Quality in Learning and Teaching webpages here and on her RAISE (Research, Advancing & Inspiring Student Engagement) webpage here.

Please note that the Peer Support Community of Practice pages, which aim to capture examples of peer support taking place across Loughborough University and to put colleagues in contact with one another, will catch up with these initiatives in due course. For further information regarding Peer Support at Loughborough more generally, please contact Dr Maurice FitzGerald (Teaching Centre).
