Study Day 10 May

The second Study Day for first-year students will take place on the Polhill Campus on Saturday 10 May: the briefing paper will be available via this site, via BREO and your Centre in the course of the coming week.

This is to remind you to be ready to report on how you have used Threshold Concepts in your teaching since the first Study Day, and to check out on BREO how things have progressed within your Interest Group.

And---having established that Interest Group---we are inviting your suggestions as to how you might best use the Study Day opportunities next year. At your next meeting we shall be inviting you to make suggestions and to plan together for the next two meetings. Give it some thought and share your ideas on BREO so that you are prepared when you meet!
