When focusing on developing student success and improving learning and teaching in HE\, there is an increasing focus on student engagement both within and alongside the curriculum (Tight\, 2020; Quaye\, Harper and Pendakur\, 2019; Lygo-Baker\, Kinchin\, and Winstone\, 2019). \nAs a best practice means for enhancement\, engaging students in educational development has created international movement towards new practices of co-design (Bovill\, 2020)\, techniques to gain student feedback (Lowe and Bols\, 2020)\, research projects about students’ experiences (Buckley et al. 2021; Kahu\, Picton\, and Nelson\, 2020 as recent examples) and students taking on roles such as partners and reviewers (Bryson\, 2016; Owen\, 2013)\, which together work towards developing education for the betterment of all stakeholders (See Snijders et al. 2020; Lowe and El Hakim\, 2020; Dunne\, 2017) for summaries on Student Engagement in Educational Development Practice). \nThere continues to be great momentum around areas of focus within student engagement such as Student Voice\, Student-Staff Partnership\, Extra-Curricular Activities and Learner Analytics\, all of which provide great potential for developing student outcomes such as satisfaction\, retention\, and employability (Adams\, 2022; Abbott\, 2022; Corr\, 2022 and Beig\, 2022). Working with our students to develop education has become the norm in many institutions at both a policy and a curriculum level. However\, it is now even more important to be critically reflective on the student engagement practices we are implementing at our institutions as the rhetoric continues to shift at a sector level around notions of value for money. An international community of scholarship has emerged advocating exploring and developing student engagement in higher education. This session is timely to provide reflections\, critique\, and challenge to student engagement agendas in order to advance practice\, to be more inclusive to a diverse student body\, whilst remaining committed to the values of student engagement\, in what are otherwise a set of challenging circumstances of an increasingly marketised sector. This session will reflect on themes for development within the student engagement discourse\, and end with recommendations for best practice from the field. \nTom Lowe Biography: \nTom Lowe is a Senior Lecturer in Higher Education\, where his research includes student engagement in development of education\, embedding employability into the curriculum and belonging. Prior to Portsmouth\, Tom was the Head of Student Engagement and Employability where he led the University’s student development\, internationalisation and extra-curricular opportunities\, staffing and strategies relating to fostering student success at Winchester. \nTom was also the programme leader for the MA in Student Engagement in Higher Education at Winchester and has served on the RAISE Committee in various roles for eight years. Tom is experienced in the practicalities surrounding student engagement in quality assurance\, learning and teaching\, University governance and Students’ Unions\, as well as student involvement in extra-curricular activities and overcoming barriers to student success through inclusive practice. \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...

Presentations will be grouped around two interlinked core themes: supervising international students and developing PGR research communities. \nProvisional Timetable 13.12.2022\n\n\n\n\n 08.30 - 9.00Refreshments available (venue: Great Hall)\n\n\n 9.00 – 9.10Welcome (Professor Robert Bickers)(venue: Great Hall)\n\n\n 9.15 – 9.40Lightning Presentations (Chair: Ros O’Leary) \n9.15 – 9.20\n“Building confidence in PGR science cohorts through writing retreats”\nDr Tomas Martin (School of Physics)\n9.20 – 9.25 \n“Connecting the Unconnected - The Part-Time Doctoral Student”\nDr Lucy Wenham (School of Education)\n9.25 – 9.30\n“Building an inclusive community and cohort identity in the EPSRC CDT in Aerosol Science” \nDr Rachel Miles & Dr Kerry Knox (School of Chemistry) \n9.30 – 9.40 \nQuestions from audience (venue: Great Hall)\n\n\n 9.40 – 9.45Setting Up Time \n\n\n 9.45 – 10.15Postgraduate Research Supervision: Q&A with Professor Andy Radford\n(Chair: Dr Hannah Grist)(venue: Great Hall)\n\n\n 10.15 – 10.30Comfort Break\n\n\n 10.30 – 11.45Short Presentations Panel 1 (Wills Reception Room)\n(Chair: Aisling Tierney)Short Presentations Panel 2 (Great Hall)\n(Chair: TBC)\n\n\n 10.30 - 10.40\n“Co-publication practices between PGRs and supervisors in the Arts and Humanities”\nDr Carol O’Sullivan (School of Modern Languages)\n10.45 - 10.55\n“Building a community of industrially based doctoral students”\nProfessor Janice Barton (Engineering)\n11.00 – 11.10\n“Sense and sensibility in PGR supervision: Understanding the international management (marketing) students emotional process under an Equality Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) lens”\nDr Eleonora Pantano (School of Management)\n11.15 – 11.25 \n“How I supported my international PhD students in building their successful careers”\nDr Lilly Liu (School of Physics)\n11.25 – 11.45 \nQuestions10.30 - 10.40\n“APPropriate?: Critiquing the use of mobile applications to communicate in written form with distance PGR students”\nDr Simon Brownhill (School of Education)\n10.45 - 10.55\n“Using coaching in Postgraduate student supervision”\nDr Rushana Khusainova (School of Management)\n11.00 - 11.10\n“Enabling student-led research clusters”\nDr Grace Brockington (Humanities/Arts) \n11.15 – 11.45 \nQuestions\n\n\n\n 11.45 - 11.50Transition time (participants in Reception Room to move back to Great Hall)\n\n\n 11.50 – 12.00Plenary/Closing Remarks (Professor Robert Bickers)(venue: Great Hall)\n\n\n\n\n\nContributors \nWe are delighted to showcase contributions from all PGR supervisors across the University of Bristol\, including well-established supervisors and those who are new to supervising postgraduate research.  \nProfessor Janice Barton (Engineering) – “Building a community of industrially based doctoral students” (Short Presentation)\nWith a strong steer from EPSRC on relevance of doctoral education to industry it is timely to discuss the experience of the Industrial Doctorate Centre in Composites Manufacture. The last EPSRC funded student was hired in 2019 and since then we have continued to build-up the community. Our current cohort is around 25 students at different stages in their studies. We have hired 7 additional students using only industry funding and fund committed to hire an additional 14 of over the next three years\, covering and enhanced stipend and fees. Our students conduct all their research in industry with a focus on TRL 3-5; they are located at their company and have an academic supervisor based at UoB and an industrial supervisor. The model is extremely attractive to industry with no shortage of companies coming forward to support the scheme. With the strong industrial emphasis on funding for future doctoral centres we would like to share our experience with a wider audience. The presentation will discuss the challenges of maintaining student interactions and building a cohort both horizontally and vertically through the programme\, as well as the challenges of supervision and publishing. Emphasis will be put on building a research base in a collaborative environment by navigating the tension between academic outcome and industry need. The presentation will be based on the experience of supervisors and students with a focus on discussion\, interactions\, and idea generation. \nDr Grace Brockington (Humanities/Arts) – “Enabling student-led research clusters” (Short Presentation)\nI have tried to build community amongst my own PGR students by enabling student-led research clusters based on a common theme in their projects. My department is History of Art\, so the first of these clusters focused on ‘art writing’\, while the second (which I have just initiated) focuses on female artists. This presentation will ask what lessons I might carry over from the first cluster to the second – what constitutes good and bad practice in setting up and running student-led research clusters? How can they be made as inclusive\, engaging\, and supportive as possible? How do they promote student wellbeing? And how might they improve degree and career outcomes? \nDr Simon Brownhill (School of Education) – “APPropriate?: Critiquing the use of mobile applications to communicate in written form with distance PGR students” (Short Presentation)\nMasek and Alias (2020: 2497) assert that ‘the key to effective supervision lies in the…communication between supervisors and students.’ For distance PGR students\, the primary mode of communication with their supervisors is through written text (Erwee and Albion\, 2011). Traditional ‘paper\, pen and ink’ methods have been justifiably replaced with email and word-processing software to reduce delays between reciprocal messages and cut costs. In recent years\, communication technology advancements have resulted in the increased sharing of written text through social media platforms\, video conferencing services\, and streaming in HEIs. This short presentation reflects on an email exchange with an international PGR student\, critiquing the use of ‘WhatsApp’\, a multi-platform mobile messaging application\, by Hong Kong doctoral candidates to communicate with their supervisors. Critical comment will be made on the demand placed on supervisors for ‘timely responses’\, alongside them becoming ‘available 24 hours a day’ (Batista et al.\, 2021: 2). \nDr Rushana Khusainova (School of Management) – “Using Coaching in Postgraduate Research Student supervision” (Short Presentation)\nCoaching is a form of personal and professional development. It is a non-directive yet goal-focused conversation and is geared towards improving personal and organisational performance and developing skills (Starr\, 2003). Coaching can be a great way of supervising postgraduate research students. It helps to empower students to develop such fundamental soft skills as growth mindset\, ‘can do’ attitude\, independent thinking and problem solving. These skills are essential in successfully going through and completing a postgraduate research journey. However\, there are some boundary conditions and contextual vouchers. For example\, in the short-term coaching is more time consuming than telling students what to do (i.e.\, giving directions). Also\, not everyone is ready and is willing to be coached. This presentation will discuss the benefits and practical considerations of using coaching in the context of postgraduate research student supervision. \nDr Lilly Liu (School of Physics) – “How I supported my international PhD students in building their successful careers” (Short Presentation)\nI came to the UK as an international PhD student in 2009 and I received my PhD degree in Bristol in 2013. Later in my postdoc life\, I was able to win three research fellowships (1851\, EPSRC and Junior Research Fellow at the University of Oxford) and I was able to secure a lectureship position at Bristol in 2018. It has been 4 years since I moved back\, I now become Associate Professor and build a research group of 10+ students/PDRAs funded by UK\, US\, and EU funding. As an Asian researcher\, I struggled but I also learned how to succeed in my research area (nuclear and aerospace materials). I have a clear idea about the experience and skills international students need to acquire during their PhD to help them stand out in future job hunting. I have adopted a very range of different methods during my supervision so every student can conduct research in their own pace and at the same time to achieve their goals. I would like to share my tips and experience with other supervisors at Bristol as my contribution towards building a healthy and inclusive research culture in our university. \nDr Tomas Martin (School of Physics) – “Building confidence in PGR science cohorts through writing retreats” (Lightning Presentation)\nOne of the challenges to supporting PGR students in science is that writing of papers and theses is a core part of the PhD experience and future career development\, but students have often chosen the sciences because they are more comfortable with numerical analysis than writing. Writing is often thought of something that requires some innate talent whereas teaching students to consider it as a craft that can be practiced helps to ease their comfort levels with this important activity. In this talk I will discuss the use of writing retreats with structured writing time as a tool to help science PGRs become more comfortable with writing as a craft. \nDr Rachael Miles (School of Chemistry) & Dr Kerry Knox (University of York) – “Building an inclusive community and cohort identity in the EPSRC CDT in Aerosol Science” (Lightning Presentation)\nThe EPSRC CDT in Aerosol Science is a 7-institution CDT led by Bristol. Our students are drawn from a wide range of both disciplinary and personal backgrounds\, with a significant number of overseas and mature PGRs. All students spend the first eight months in Bristol as a cohort undertaking a taught programme\, followed by a three-month research sabbatical at a partner university. They then move 5 to begin their PhD at their home institution at the start of the second year. In this presentation we will briefly discuss how we have established an inclusive research community within the CDT\, the support we provide to individual students and supervisors to help establish good working relationships from the start of the PhD\, and the ways in which we work to establish (multiple) cohort identities. \nDr Carol O’Sullivan (School of Modern Languages) – “Copublication practices between PGRs and supervisors in the Arts and Humanities” (Short Presentation)\nCopublication is very common in many disciplines but has historically been uncommon in the Arts and Humanities. This is now changing\, and we are increasingly seeing copublished research by teams in disciplines such as Translation Studies and Digital Humanities. This includes copublication by PhD students and their supervisors\, either during or after the PhD. No guidelines are currently available to supervisors in the Faculty of Arts about best practice. This presentation presents the findings of a research project in the School of Modern Languages led by Dr Carol O’Sullivan and Dr Xiaochun Zhang with Dr Paola Ruffo. A survey of current and former PhD students and supervisors revealed\, among other findings\, that while many had copublished\, very few (almost 90%) had access to best practice guidelines or would know who to contact in case of a dispute. Other problems and challenges were identified including the power hierarchy between students and supervisors. The research was funded by small research project funded by Research England through an ‘Enhancing Research Culture’ institutional grant. \nDr Eleonora Pantano (School of Management) – “Sense and sensibility in PGR supervision: Understanding the international management (marketing) students emotional process under an Equality Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) lens” (Short Presentation)\nThis research would provide a deeper understanding of the emotional process taking place between international PGR students and supervisors under an Equality Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) lens. To this end\, the research exploits the challenges in cross-cultural PGR supervisions\, and the emotional process occurring during supervision relationships. Suggestions to build more effective and successful relationships under an EDI lens are finally provided. \nDr Lucy Wenham (School of Education) – “Connecting the Unconnected – The Part-Time Doctoral Student” (Lightning Presentation)\nDrawing from successful pandemic pedagogies – including the move to effective online supervision – can mean even less on campus participation from some doctoral students\, in particular those part[1]time students with other work commitments. Thus\, even the most thriving PGR communities developed in-person may exclude these more detached\, harder-to-reach students. I have aimed to link such doctoral students together\, forming a satellite community of their own\, through the use of focussed targeted pairings\, group supervisions and round-table meetings – all on-line. Students articulate that they appreciate this approach that is designed to meet their different needs. They express that they benefit from these additional opportunities\, not only through feeling less alone on their doctoral journey\, but also through moving their research forward to new levels. \n\nFurther details\nFurther details will be sent out before the symposium\, if you have any questions\, please contact bilt-info@bristol.ac.uk \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...

Although all transitions can impact students it is clear that a successful transition into higher education can be fundamental to a student’s ultimate success at university. Moving from secondary education to university can be a stressful time where students experience multiple stressors including the need to meet and make new friendship groups. \nDuring this first transition\, developing a sense of belonging with peers\, staff and the institution is crucial and\, if successful\, can provide academic benefits\, increased retention\, the development of learning communities and wellbeing benefits. Here I outline a developing study that is following our current year 1 Biological Science students throughout their student journey by exploring whether attending a residential field trip at the start of a degree programme influences their sense of belonging at university. \nThe trip took place in October 2022 and not only included key biological skills training but a strong focus on community building. Within this BILT Show\, Tell and Talk session I will outline how we developed the trip to focus on creating a strong sense of belonging\, summarise the first emerging thoughts of our students and outline how we will continue to assess the experience of students in the future. \n  \nPatty Miranda – BILT Student Fellow for student belonging and wellbeing in the curricula \nOffering student voice and sharing insights from the ongoing collaborative work between students and staff to improve the Bristol Skills Framework\, with a particular emphasis on the skills and traits required to develop personal effectiveness\, promote good wellbeing\, and a genuine sense of belonging. \n  \nClaire Spencer – Senior Lecturer in the School of Accounting and Finance and BILT project holder \nStudent transition to university needs to be swift\, particularly for postgraduate students on one-year programmes. It also needs to be effective\, as students can be reluctant to speak up about issues affecting them\, resulting in missed opportunities to close gaps in their academic and personal skills\, often impacting their wellbeing. \nThe Business School provides a team tutoring model for postgraduate students with variable levels of student engagement across this large cohort. Drawing on practical experience as Senior Tutor and two current research projects Claire will provide insight into how factors such as language\, culture\, quality of service and communication may prevent early engagement with tutoring\, and how through a workshop with students four themes have emerged around cohort community and belonging. These themes are guiding co-created initiatives that aim to benefit the students’ experience and provide tutors improved insight to students’ needs to evolve tutoring support. \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...

The live in-person lectures explore the content. We will discuss how attending the in-person lectures can be made to bring value to the students’ experience – so that they attend – but just watching RePlay afterwards really isn’t the same. We discuss how the sessions are made dynamic and interesting for students and\, crucially\, how the students themselves have agency in those lectures to encourage them to come along and take part! \nDigital Education Office representatives   \nMembers of the Digital Education Office (DEO) will be briefly discussing different ways you can engage your students with online materials. Eliana Osorio Saez will be discussing tips to build a vibrant online community. Martin Nutbeem will talk about the importance of accessibility and Blackboard Ally stats around numbers of alternative formats downloaded and individual students downloading them. Finally\, David Morgan will be sharing his interactive learning materials decision tree\, to help users navigate the numerous resources the DEO support across various platforms. If you have any further questions\, you can also contact the DEO via email digital-eduation@bristol.ac.uk \nLouise Howson (Lecturer in Academic Development) \nThis presentation will explore how the PGCAP has moved to multimodal workshop delivery with workshops taking place in person\, synchronously online\, and through asynchronous activities. Louise Howson will be discussing how the programme ensures parity of experience within these three differing workshop models through collaborative planning and delivery. Examples of activities common to all modes of delivery will be shared as well as feedback from the current PGCAP unit 2 cohort about their experiences.  \nMalaq-Neo Daniel (Undergraduate student – School of Chemistry) \nUnderstanding how the Implementation of Innovative Blended Learning Methods\, alongside Emerging Post-COVID-19 Teaching Styles has affected Learning for Second Year Undergraduates in the School of Chemistry.  This presentation by Undergraduate student Malaq will outline his self-directed project evaluating how teaching styles in the School of Chemistry varied during the implementation of the newly structured chemistry course and through emerging post-COVID-19 teaching. This ‘Teaching Audit’ will determine how students interpret new course structures and various teaching styles across optional and mandatory units. The project aims to analyse the relationship between students interpretation of new blended learning approaches with lecturers’ interpretation of their teaching methods and how this affects students learning. Malaq will explore what provisional findings and cross-disciplinary learnings have emerged from this project. \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...

Please direct any enquiries to the organiser \nJoin us for an open-ended and exploratory discussion of the ethical implications of AI for assessment in higher education. \nRegister here   \nIncluding audience participation through interactive polls and discussion. \nThe advent and growth of AI presents new challenges and opportunities for assessment of learning in higher education. The ability to generate original text and other outputs (art\, computer code\, etc) from simple input prompts challenge how we understand many forms of assessment (for example essays) to represent students’ learning and knowledge. At the same time\, this technology is likely to be present in the environments in which students will work\, may enable some students to better express their learning\, and can be seen as continuation of other technologies that assist writing and knowledge management. This panel will explore ethical positions on how these developments should relate to assessment practice. \nAI generated image of a panel discussion and audience (credit: Open AI)\nModerator: \nProfessor Tansy Jessop (Pro Vice-Chancellor for Education and Students) \nPanel: \nProfessor Helen Heath (Physics) \nDr Steve Bullock (Aerospace Engineering) \nDr Joan Passey (Dept of English) \nEd Daniels (MArts – Film and Television with Innovation) \nTimber Hill (MSc – Nuclear Science and Engineering) \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...

In particular\, we will explore the 4-step Readiness Assurance Process to which TBL relies upon; this is implemented to ensure that learners are motivated to make preparation before class and then turn it into true readiness to cope with multiple choice questions and application case studies/exercises during the class. We will invite you to gain hands-on experience in using a cloud-based web application (InteDashboard) for TBL quizzes and cases.  \nFurther reading about the Team-Based Learning approach:  \nMichaelsen\, L.

And what better way to learn than actually build a skyscraper\, or a stadium. Unfortunately\, these costs hundreds of millions of pounds\, so we reach for the next best thing Lego!  Through playful scenario setting\, by adding risks through the role of a nice\, and costing the build of the New York’s skyline students are exposed to a number of real life challenges and practices\, all whilst having fun. And in this session you will get to have a go too. Come along\, build New York\, whilst we share videos and stories that explain how our students are learning through play.  \n  \nDr Annika Johnson – Asymmetric Curiosity (Economics)  \nActive learning is just as important in large group settings as small classes\, but motivating students to engage without the instructor closely overseeing each student’s actions might mean the student doesn’t fully participate and they then miss out on learning. In this section we look at a simple method to prompt student’s curiosity in a large group setting and use this to incentivise all students to follow each and every logical step in the outline of a proof. It is simple\, random act of curiosity used annually to teach asymmetric information in Economics.   \nNote: Please make the presenter aware of any citrus allergies at the beginning of the session.   \n  \nProfessor Francesco Fornetti (Electrical and Electronic Engineering)  \nWill attend on the day and answer any informal questions related to taking a holistic approach to designing active learning sessions for which supporting resources will be provided to attendees ahead of the event.  \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...

This session\, chaired by Kirsten Cater (Education Director for PGT and Associate Dean\, Department of Computer Science)\, will include a range of examples and ideas exploring how group projects and dissertations can set up and delivered\, how such projects are received by students and the advantages and disadvantages of organising and delivering such projects.  \nContributions include/Contributor abstracts:   \nDr Lucy MacCarthy-Morrogh (School of Biochemisty)  \nGroup research projects are more and more being recognised as a valuable ‘capstone project’ option for students in their final year of study. I’ll talk about one such project that has run for the past two years in the school of Biochemistry. This project gives the students the opportunity to work full time (or as much as their teaching timetable allows) immersed in a research environment – albeit set up in a teaching lab – for the duration of the project. This enables students to adapt to a new environment and become adept and familiar with sophisticated and authentic laboratory techniques and data analysis.  Students rapidly move from being dependents to planning and performing their own experiments and making their own decisions.  Such projects can play a significant part in enabling students to develop many skills\, including\, importantly\, becoming independent and critical thinkers.   \nI’ll describe what needed doing to set such a project up\, how it has run the last two years\, the benefits of such projects to both the students and their school\, some limitations\, and what I learned from version 1 (run in 2021) that led to tweaks to version 2 (2022).  \n  \nDr Stephanie Pellegrin (School of Biochemistry)   \nYear 3 experimental group research project delivered in the Biochemistry Teaching Labs   \nThe Year 3 Research Project Unit in the School of Biochemistry is an opportunity for students to develop their skills as independent thinkers and researchers. This summative project is the culmination of their university training\, often referred to as a ‘capstone’ project\, and is worth 20% of the final year mark. Many students choose experimental projects to experience lab work in a research environment. Typically\, each student spends ~20 days ‘at the bench’ then writes up their work in the form of a scientific article. My aim was to offer an experimental group research project (GRP) which could be delivered to 6 – 20 students in the Biochemistry teaching labs and which would emulate the experimental projects offered in a research environment. This GRP is allied to a research-active group within the Biochemistry department and enables each student to carry out novel research and design experiments addressing the research hypothesis. I will detail the process of setting up and running an experimental GRP as well as highlight what needs to be taken into consideration along the way.  \n  \nEvelyn Miller (Third year Sociology with Quantitative Research Methods BSc and BILT Student Fellow on Decolonising the curriculum)  \n Drawing from my experience of assessment within the SPAIS department at the University of Bristol\, my presentation will propose that group projects or assessments are an important part of our education. Group projects offer the opportunity for students to reflect on their own academic practices\, to carefully consider how to go about knowledge-sharing to suit other students’ needs and to value the learning and perspectives of their peers. In particular\, group projects or assessments can benefit students from marginalised backgrounds\, such as neurodiverse students.  \nTracey Maggs (Professional Liaison Officer – Faculty of Social Sciences and Law)  and Tao Wang (Senior Lecturer\, School of Management) \n The Professional Liaison Network (PLN) co-ordinates a range of activities that connect students\, academics and researchers from the Faculty of Social Sciences and Law with external organisations.   This joint presentation will focus on how the PLN has successfully collaborated with the MSc Management programme academic team to implement applied learning through group projects to give students the opportunity to gain practically orientated experiences that enrich their learning and build employability skills.   We will share our key learnings around the planning\, preparation and logistics of setting up group projects and the challenges of scaling up through a series of case studies.    We will also give an overview of the new assessment process and how we have learnt from previous models to ensure the grading structure is both consistent and equitable for all students.  Finally we will discuss student feedback and how this will inform our future practice.   \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...

DESCRIPTION:Overview:  \nRegister here  Students wishing to attend this event can register on Eventbrite.  \nThis is one event in a series of workshops in this year’s BILT Show\, Tell and Talk series which aim to explore local research and showcase examples of innovative practice across the university. In this session staff from across the University will demonstrate how they have embedded authentic assessments in different disciplinary areas.   \nContributions include/Contributor abstracts:   \nDr Anthi Chondrogianni  (Senior Lecturer in Economics)  \nOur graduates are employed in a wide range of sectors\, such as banking\, consulting\, government\, start-ups and think-tanks. Therefore\, economics students are required to develop a wide range of skills throughout their degrees\, from data analysis to communicating with non-specialist audiences\, to be well-equipped for their future careers. At the same time\, due to the increasing number of students\, it is critical to ensure the quality of graduates is not jeopardised. From a pedagogical perspective\, to help students genuinely developed these skills\, it is important to design assessments that do not focus exclusively on traditional\, for our field\, skills\, such as academic writing\, and economic application. In my talk\, I will discuss how I introduced a two-stage summative assessment that helps students develop both ‘soft’ and ‘hard’ skills\, as they are often termed. It will also cover some important challenges that had to be addressed to ensure disabled students’ learning and teaching is supported in line with the university’s guidelines.  \nDr Neil Carhart (Senior Lecturer in Civil Engineering)  \nFrom designing weather satellites to constructing wind-turbines and maintaining high-speed railways\, engineering students are trained in a broad range of theories\, tools and techniques they will be expected to put into practice as professionals in their chosen discipline.  Such skills are used in the service of delivering effective\, efficient and sustainable systems that meet societies’ needs. These complex challenges cannot be solved by a single sector working in isolation. They involve collaboration with economists\, creative industries\, politicians\, chemists\, social scientists\, the public and many others. While technical skills may form the building blocks of a professional engineers’ abilities\, their higher-order skills of critical thinking\, collaboration\, communication and complex problem-solving form the mortar that binds them together and allows them to be put to meaningful use.  This short talk will share experiences of a summative assessment that aims to allow students to demonstrate some of these higher-order learning outcomes\, on a complex real-world challenge\, and applying the sorts of tools they will likely use as practising engineers.  \nDomi Duff (3rd Year undergraduate Psychology student and BILT Student Fellow for active and authentic learning)  \nThere is general agreement that authentic assessment is useful in a number of ways but what do students think about what is already in place? In this session\, I will present the findings from student feedback questionnaires and interviews to outline the student voice on their recent authentic assessments\, considering their wants and needs with the aim of improving student buy-in and promoting the good work already taking place.  \nJess McCormack (Lecturer in Theatre and Performance) and Alice Bebber\, CJ Coppin\, Amy O’Mahony (2nd year Theatre students) \nWorking in collaboration with the UOB Engaged Learning Team\, this project was designed to support BA Theatre and Performance Studies students on the ‘Applied Theatre’ unit to engage in a project with a local community or education-based organisation. Working in small groups\, the students initially worked with one community or education-based organisation to identify and gain insight into specific challenges facing that organisation or specific campaign/mission the organisation is working on\, before designing and delivering a programme of theatre/creative arts activity (including creative workshops and/or performance) to respond to their proposal and benefit the organisation’s needs.  This community engaged learning project aimed to provide opportunities for BA Theatre and Performance Studies students to learn through practice and apply their creative facilitation and creative directing and producing skills to real-world community or education-based projects. This project also aimed to encourage students to become active and creative citizens by providing them with the opportunity to gain insight into and respond to specific challenges facing community and/or education-based organisations. This short talk will explore how this unit was designed and delivered and share experiences of a summative assessment that asked students to demonstrate some of the learning outcomes that emerged when they applied their creative facilitation and creative directing and producing skills to complex real-world projects.   \nThis year the students worked with Bristol Refugee Rights\, ACTA Community Theatre\, Friends of Hillfields Library\, May Park Primary School and the University of Bristol Faculty of Arts Widening Participation Team.   \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...
