Presentation transcript:

1. Promoting a culture that centres on inclusion and retention No social life. - No venue for students to organise a social life, social club etc. Students do not feel part of the institutions. No effective counselling services. The University does not offer a broad range of courses/subject e.g. Social science & psychology and this is necessary for effective legal training. The University of Fiji, Private Mail Bag, Lautoka. Fiji. Ph: +679 6640600 www.unifiji.ac.fj

Fostering a culture of student engagement and where the students are the most important stakeholders at this institution. Respect the school’s discretion on pre-requisites. Lack of social life Counselling and support structures The University of Fiji, Private Mail Bag, Lautoka. Fiji. Ph: +679 6640600 www.unifiji.ac.fj

2. Coping with new teaching methods and ways of learning Standardised peer reviews is not a quality way of ascertaining quality teaching and learning methods. Eg. Course outline changes almost daily because of introduced cases and new legislation in law. The University of Fiji, Private Mail Bag, Lautoka. Fiji. Ph: +679 6640600 www.unifiji.ac.fj

Learning ways to study independently We need to balance this carefully with facilitation, nurturing and care giving of students. The University of Fiji, Private Mail Bag, Lautoka. Fiji. Ph: +679 6640600 www.unifiji.ac.fj

Coping with volume and speed of the workload Counselling is critical. Counselling services have to be highly qualified, well experienced in dealing with young people and have a higher degree in counselling and psychology. The University of Fiji, Private Mail Bag, Lautoka. Fiji. Ph: +679 6640600 www.unifiji.ac.fj

6/7. Good communication at the beginning of the semester/course outline. The University of Fiji, Private Mail Bag, Lautoka. Fiji. Ph: +679 6640600 www.unifiji.ac.fj

8. Revision/remedial classes held by the Law school apart from regular contact hours. The University of Fiji, Private Mail Bag, Lautoka. Fiji. Ph: +679 6640600 www.unifiji.ac.fj

9 Anything to do with evaluation should be sent to us early. Collegial discussion and faculty wide setting of teaching standards specific to the faculty. The University of Fiji, Private Mail Bag, Lautoka. Fiji. Ph: +679 6640600 www.unifiji.ac.fj

10 This question needs further explanation. The University of Fiji, Private Mail Bag, Lautoka. Fiji. Ph: +679 6640600 www.unifiji.ac.fj

11 How do you improve something that we are not aware of. Need to provide faculty with a list of student support services available. The University of Fiji, Private Mail Bag, Lautoka. Fiji. Ph: +679 6640600 www.unifiji.ac.fj

12 SOL HAS 2 CAMPUSES and IT communication is not currently effective at the moment. The University of Fiji, Private Mail Bag, Lautoka. Fiji. Ph: +679 6640600 www.unifiji.ac.fj

13 We have raised the issue of the QA mechanisms that we have been presented with and there has to be a review of these mechanisms. SOL has the Board of Legal Education as its higher authority. The Fiji Higher Education Commission and the Board are not always on the same page and we need to facilitate better engagement between these two bodies. The University of Fiji, Private Mail Bag, Lautoka. Fiji. Ph: +679 6640600 www.unifiji.ac.fj

14 Counselling The University of Fiji, Private Mail Bag, Lautoka. Fiji. Ph: +679 6640600 www.unifiji.ac.fj

Achieving quality student admission. Raise the bar. 250 minimum marks and 60% pass in English. This will go to Retention. English for academic purposes to teach English for legal purposes. Legal referencing style guide is our guideline accepted in the practice of law. We are in conversation with SOHA on this matter and progress has been made.
