Aims
*to enable students to take responsibility for their learning
*to develop group working skills which encourage autonomy
*to reflect on how we can encourage our students to become autonomous learners and share good practice.
 
Process
We will work as a group throughout the day using methods that you can use with your students. There will be opportunities to reflect on how we ourselves learn.  A combination of experiential work, discussion groups and experimental activities will be used.   There will be opportunities for individual and shared reflection and an examination of the role of relationship and passion to the teaching and learning process.

Outcomes
* you will feel more confident in your role as tutor.
* you will further develop your range of tutorial techniques.
* you will identify how you may be unintentionally dependency in your students
when course learning used with your students
* your students will become more confident and autonomous
