Subject: 'Student-Generated Induction' Workshop, York March
25th
" A new way of addressing
induction with an informed and researched pedagogy to underpin the
discussion" [Workshop Participant]
Dear All, You may be interested in this social and
participative approach to studentinduction &
transition. The practice is based on a peer-to-peer relationship and
provides a strong fit with modern concepts such as
'Student-As-Producer' and
'Student-As-Partner.'
This experiential staff development
workshop is called "Student-GeneratedInduction: A Social Identity Approach" and it takes place at the
Royal Hotel(next door to York train station) in York on Wednesday March 25th
2015.
The workshop will provide new group-level
theory and practice for studentinduction. This has
been developed from doctoral research at University of Glasgow.
Participants will have the opportunity to experience an approach already in use
in different universities. Participants will use this scalable approach to share
and discuss aspects of their current practice.
This event has proved very popular in
recent times providing a useful forum for reflection amongst support &
information professionals as well as academics. If you would like to book a
