Professor Marie will draw on her extensive research into student partnership and her work as Head of ALE at the University of Greenwich.

Title: &quot;Post-pandemic mattering: What matters to students and how do they know we care?&quot;Abstract In this talk I will investigate two issues that students highlighted as mattering to their education during the pandemic: social interaction and flexibility/choice. I will draw on both research conducted at the University of Greenwich and the wider literature to explore the best ways of conceptualising the wider issues they relate to, such as belonging. I will highlight the additional benefits that come from focusing on these issues, exploring how they support students’ wellbeing and inclusivity; and I look at practical ways that we can incorporate these practices into teaching. I end by considering how student partnership relates to the issues discussed and look at the practicalities of working in partnership with students to enhance education.Biography: Professor Jenny Marie leads the Academic and Learning Enhancement team at the University of Greenwich, where she works to enhance the quality of education provided across the institution.
