Maria Dawson (Combined Subjects) has recently given a paper entitled 'Student voice: "Personalize my learning"' at the 5th International Conference of Education, Research and Innovation in Madrid (19th-21st November 2012). The paper reports on a project which explored students' understandings of the notion of 'employability' and encouraged them to build the relationship between HE and graduate employability in a way that makes sense to them. Maria's findings revealed that transition from undergraduate status to graduate 'work-ready' status requires high-intensity support by academic and student-centred staff teams.
Dr Gavin Schaffer (University of Birmingham) will be appearing in the History Lab at 4pm on Thursday 6th December 2012 (Priestman 102). His talk is entitled 'Making multiculturalism on British TV: Postwar British broadcasting and race'. All History Lab seminars last for 30-40 minutes and are followed by an optional trip to the pub and a meal. Staff and students from all faculties are invited.
