We will be presenting a poster about our project at the University of Lincoln’s Embedding Partnership in Teaching & Learning Symposium on 2nd June 2015, which is running as part of their HEA funded Pedagogies of Partnership project. More info available here.

Our First Conference

On the 6th of March 2015 some of the student team took part in the projects first conference. The student as producer conference took place in the Engine Shed within the University of Lincoln’s campus and was an exciting experience for us to showcase our project for the first time to the public.

Discussing our project using a power point presentation we explained to the audience the purpose of the project and the milestones that we have reached so far. The main purpose of the conference was to emphasise the importance of student involvement in terms of creating new content. By giving students a voice and the opportunity to work alongside staff it provides a better insight into what needs to be done. Which in our case; is key for creating a module.

It was a great experience for us to do this, and we hope to travel to different universities and conferences to spread the word on student involvement. It also gave us a chance to reflect on our involvement and discuss to those who attended why we believe the project is so worthwhile.

We would also like to take the opportunity now on our blog to thank those who came to the conference and the kind messages regarding our presentation, these were so encouraging we cannot wait to get to the next conference!
