Workshop: Enhancing the Student Experience

Presenters:
Professor Hamish Coates – University of Melbourne
Professor Victor Borden – Indiana University

A national project has sought to stimulate new ways of thinking about the higher education student experience. Funded by the Australian Government’s Office for Learning and Teaching, the project has mapped new ways of thinking about students, looked at approaches being used by dozens of Australians in higher education institutions, and worked with hundreds of experts around the world to spotlight options for improvement. To convey these findings, a series of workshops have been designed to help institutions understand how to enhance students’ experience.
