Learning from learners about developing e-learning resources to support transition to Higher Education Christine Keenan, Bournemouth University Becka Currant, University of Bradford

- Why is this important? -Political and Theoretical background -Our approaches to addressing the issues -Stepping Stones 2HE -Develop Me! and SaPRA online -Discussion Overview of session

Context: Research into the FYE -(P)olitical drivers -National research in FYE – ongoing theory development -Growing area of interest -Issues identified? -Problems have wider impact due to differences in student population

Students 2.0? *Who/what are modern students? *A vision of students today Wesch(2007) *What issues do they face? *What challenges does this pose for us? *How do we respond to differences from the ‘norm’?A vision of students today

Why Do Students Leave University? Research has traditionally concentrated on poor or weak academic and social engagement Becoming increasingly interested in: Why/How do Students Persevere at University

HEA e-learning Research Observatory project Compare and evaluate impact of two different approaches to supporting student transition Focusing on: Different approaches to online pre-enrolment material Different delivery mechanisms (web based vs VLE) Diverse student groups How have we addressed these issues?

Primary objective to enable students to manage process of transition in both academic and social terms Academic : Early engagement with academic materials and development of academic skills Completion of SaPRA to identify levels of confidence and develop action plan to reflect on with personal tutor and evidence in PDP Social: Start process of making links with peers on courses and other students in University Early opportunities for collaborative learning Share hopes, fears and concerns about starting course, also, identify challenges and find answers to burning questions

Develop Me! Online E- Induction Module Course Specific Information Health & Safety Information Integrated support for skills development and understanding development needs Generic University based information (the usual paper bumpf sent out to freshers!) Bespoke interactive exercises to promote academic and social cohesion prior to arrival Targeted information relevant to particular courses

65% felt the materials were a useful resource 50% felt the materials had increased their confidence at University 42% felt their motivation had been increased Feedback from Students:

How effective is it? What would you like to see happen? How can you ‘make it so’? Discussion: What happens at your institution?
