‘The Use and Abuse of the Student Voice’, funded by a Leadership Foundation Small Development Project grant, investigates the challenges for academic leaders created by the need to develop education in the context of evaluation of teaching by students. Case studies have been created from staff stories of their experiences to develop materials and resources which can be used across a range of institutions for leadership development purposes.

You are welcome to share the emerging findings of our project at a national workshop on 20th October 2017 at Sheffield Hallam University. We aim to help colleagues to make best use of the student voice to recognise and support teaching excellence. We will also use workshop participants’ feedback to further define and develop the project’s leadership materials. The event will be of interest to staff in Higher Education involved in making use of student evaluations of teaching, and to leaders of academic staff with a commitment to using the student voice productively to inspire professional development.

The workshop is free and includes lunch. Places are limited so if you register and are then unable to attend, please do cancel so that someone else can attend instead.
