Together\, they ask a series of questions and raise challenges for the conception of co-creation and its practice. They also\, however\, consider how to constructively address these challenges\, and point to opportunities. Following short presentations\, there will be a discussion and Q&A where these are further explored. \n\nThe first paper (Culley and Martineau)\, titled ‘A community-oriented relational approach to teaching in HE’\, addresses the current challenges faced by Universities to adequately support the growing mental health and wellbeing (MHWB) needs of their students in relation to the question of co-creation. supporting students’ positive MHWB\, and that a more community-based\, relational approach which focuses on fostering students’ sense of belonging and prioritizes engagement and active learning is better able to empower students and thus to support their positive mental health and wellbeing.\nThe second paper (Sealy)\, titled ‘Co-creation and epistemological pluralism or closure’\, asks questions of the extent to which co-creation on a unit can lead to a more diverse or narrower set of views and positions being engaged\, and the epistemological terms of this engagement\, and the effects this can have on students’ appreciation of a topic and the development of their own positions. It does so through reflection of teaching a 3rd year UG unit on religion and politics.\nThe third paper (Lin)\, titled ‘Co-creating Learning from a Decolonial Perspective: Blurring Informal and Formal Learning to Enhance student-teacher Relationships and Empower Students’\, assesses the extent to which the persisting binary between formal and informal learning has obscured the student-teacher relationships against the backdrop of internationalised and decolonising education that is competition-driven and market-targeting\, and colonial. From a decolonial perspective\, the paper explores culturally responsive ‘coffee morning’ and ‘sharing home-cooked food in the classroom’ as two binary-blurring case studies facilitating students and teachers to collaborate\, decolonise\, and empower students.\nThe final paper (Dodsworth)\, titled ‘Student Attitudes to Co-Creation’ explores the evidence for student support for co-creation\, exploring both to what extent students seek to participate in co-creation and with what forms. Contextualising co-creation within a broader crisis of student engagement\, this paper will argue that a more nuanced and reflexive approach is needed to ensure that students are able to fully participate\, and so equally benefit\, from the possibilities of co-creation.\n\nAn audience Q&A and discussion between the panelists then explores the challenges and considerations in relation to co-creation with a particular view to how these might be addressed and the opportunities that might be opened up. \nStaff register here Students register here \n\nFacilitator – Thomas Sealy – Lecturer in Ethnicity and Race\, School of Sociology\, Politics and International Studies\nContributors:\n\nTia Culley\nWendy Martineau\nJoe Lin\nAshley Dodsworth\n\n\n\nShare this:\n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n Like this:Like Loading...

It emphasizes higher-order thinking and often involves group work” (Freeman et al.\, 2014). Research also demonstrates that active learning can allow students to take agency in their own learning (Harris et al\, 2020); can involve working in diverse groups on community and global issues (Pasquerella 2022) and can narrow achievement gaps benefiting all students (Inside Higher Ed\, 2022). \nThis sharing innovation workshop (90 minutes) provides an opportunity to hear from a range of colleagues sharing their practice and for you to ask questions. \nThis 90 minute in-person workshop will take place in Room SM3\, Ada Lovelace (Maths) Building\, University Walk\, Tankard’s Close\, BS8 1TW from 12.30 pm until 2 pm \nTea\, coffee and biscuits will be available from 12.15 pm. \nStaff register here Students register here \nFacilitator: \n\nEmilie Poletto-Lawson – BILT Lecturer\n\nContributors: \n\nSimon Brownhill\nJoel Ross\nBecky Collins\nBecky Selwyn\nClaire Spencer\n\nShare this:\n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n Like this:Like Loading...
