This HEA toolkit has lots of practical advice for engaging students through partnership.
They look at four different areas:
- Learning, teaching and assessment – students as active participants in their learning.
- Curriculum design and pedagogic consultancy – student engagement in formal processes of course design, revalidation and staff development.
- Subject-based research and inquiry – student engagement as co-researchers and co-inquirers within a programme or extra-curricular research projects.
- Scholarship of teaching and learning– student engagement in inquiries into learning, teaching and assessment.
