On being strategic about the first year (pdf)

Abstract

This interactive seminar will examine a range of ways in which staff from across the university can work together to enhance the quality of the first year experience. It will take into account what the research tells us about the changing nature of first year students and will consider implications for policy and practice at CQU.

As part of the seminar, we will discuss the new Australian Survey of Student Engagement. There will be opportunity for questions and discussion of some of the challenges we all face as we seek to enhance student engagement.
