Hello,
East Midlands ARLG invite you to attend our autumn event on Tuesday 19th November at Loughborough University. Sally Bartholomew and Jodi Withers (authors of Making it at Uni) from University of Wolverhampton will be facilitating an all day workshop on: Supporting the Student Transition from FE/Sixth form to HE.
This will be a lively workshop bringing together colleagues from Further Education and Higher Education to explore how we can better support students through their transition to Higher Education. Content will include the academic skills development of new undergraduates as well as other issues including the social and emotional factors of transition and the strategic role libraries can play in supporting students.
The workshop aims to:
•Present the complex challenges students face when transitioning to HE.
•Understand the contexts students are arriving from and travelling to.
•Consider ways in which schools/college/sixth-form libraries/librarians can prepare students for these future challenges.
•Consider ways in which HE libraries welcome new students and help them embrace new ways of working.
Lunch will also be included on the day.
