Discipline Change Programmes - Responding to the National Student Survey in the disciplines
Departments are being faced with significant challenges including changes to funding models, new technologies, balancing teaching and research and serving an increasingly diverse body of learners. At the same time they must continue to ensure that student satisfaction is enhanced though the provision of a high quality student learning experience.
This is a new discipline based programme enabling subject communities and departments to work creatively to meet these challenges through developing and implementing projects and ideas that aim to improve the student experience. This programme gives the departments an opportunity to make significant improvements to the student learning experience in a way which ensures comprehensive planning, evidence based development, strategic implementation and meaningful evaluation.
