Led by Elizabeth New (History & Welsh History), alongside Sian Nicholas, Eleri Phillips, and a student steering committee. The aim of this project is to create an outdoor amenity for staff and students that support education and recreation on campus. The project seeks to enhance students’ learning through collaborative mentored historical research, gardening, and public engagement.

This project is led by Emma Sheppard (DGES), alongside Toni Beardmore, Eleri Phillips, Morgan Jones, Emma Butler-Wray, Hywel Griffiths, and Tom Holt.

The aim of the project is to promote accessibility, inclusivity, and sustainability in the Department of Geography and Earth Sciences by developing a ‘library of things’ for student borrowing and use.

The library will make use of second-hand useable resources and students will be able to participate in repair cafes, making the library sustainable.

This project is led by Theatre, Film, and Television Studies’ Kate Woodward.

The aim of the project is to ascertain student understanding of the role of feedback and to maximise student engagement with feedback.

The department is also looking to ensure staff familiarity with inclusive and compassionate feedback design and assessment criteria.

They are changing current practices by adapting and standardising rubrics, feedback and assessment criteria.

Department of Life Science’s Scott Tompsett is collaborating with Cal Walters-Davies and Caroline White from Student Journey to identify common issues for students in relation to group work.

They are investigating how to make groupwork more accessible to neurodivergent students.

They aim to develop a suite of resources for students and teaching staff to better facilitate group work and will test these in several modules.
