Teaching and Learning Committee Minutes 2015-18
What is the Teaching and Learning Committee?
The aim of the Teaching and Learning Committee is to oversee and provide leadership in all aspects of the undergraduate (UGT) and postgraduate taught (PGT) programme provision in the school. The meetings take place at 3 points in the year (October, February and May)
Student Representatives from all years are encouraged to attend these meetings and play an active role in representing the student body.
Teaching Review Minutes
What are Teaching Review meetings?
Teaching Review meetings are held twice per semester and are an opprtunity for students in all years to feedback on their course unit lecture and teaching experiences via the student reps. Course unit lecturers are normally in attendance in order to answer any initial queries. The meetings are usually chaired by the Year Tutor. Notes and actions are taken at the meetings and published for the students to see. Any outstanding actions are followed up and acted upon before the next round of meetings.
