Abstract

This workshop set out to share experiences of running a pilot project, in the School of Health and Social Care at the University of Lincoln, which offered a ‘lecturer-led’ student-based service to educators, whereby trained student consultants provided feedback to individual lecturers on elements of teaching and learning. As peers in the production of knowledge and the experience of learning, student consultants offered the student perspective on learning. The project acknowledged that students are the ‘experts’ on the experience of participating in teaching and learning activities. Workshop outcomes - learnt about an approach to gaining a better sense of student experiences within different learning activities; - considered the opportunities and challenges that arise through the implementation and management of a scheme that partners with students as consultants on teaching; - reflected on student engagement in the enhancement of learning and teaching in ways that are meaningful, personalised, timely and confidential.
