Developing and Supporting the Curriculum is the new Enhancement Theme and will run for three academic years, from summer 2011.
In brief, ‘Developing and Supporting the Curriculum’ will allow the HE sector dedicated time, space and resource to consider and shape the nature of the Scottish HE experience, complementing work already going on within institutions.
In G21C we considered what attributes graduates should have when they complete their first degree. Now we will consider how students arrive at this point:
How is the curriculum, in its broadest sense, shaped and delivered?
Who is it for – how is the student body changing?
What support is required for staff?
This Theme is committed to making the learner journey more effective for students and more efficient for staff and the public purse, with a strong focus on quality and is consistent with the Scottish Government’s 2010 Green Paper Building a Smarter Future.
