Creative Approaches: How Long is Lifelong?

Creative Approaches: How Long is Lifelong?

Creative Approaches: How Long is Lifelong?

Approaches, and perspectives on, the mature student lifecycle.

Tuesday 9th March 12 - 1.30 pm

How does a mature students journey into, through and then out of higher education differ from that of a school leaver? Are our existing internal processes and mechanisms of support fit for purpose or are we trying to fit a proverbial square peg into a round hole. What could / should we be doing to better support mature students in their HE journey and in particular before they start their studies as well as during the various transition stages - and beyond as they develop their eventual identities as graduates.

What to expect: These will be participative, collaborative events to share creative ideas and good practice: ‘what works’ (or not!).

Facilitated by Paul Devlin (Student Support Officer, University of Leeds)
