Welcome to the Enhancement Themes website

Improving the learning experience of students in higher education is the main purpose of the Enhancement Themes. It is vital to the success of the themes for students to be involved.

Developing and Supporting the Curriculum

Developing and Supporting the Curriculum is the current Enhancement Theme and will run for three academic years, from summer 2011 to Summer 2014.

Taught Postgraduate Student Experience

The current Learning from International Practice (LFIP) work is looking at the Taught Postgraduate Student Experience. The work has defined its scope to explore - what are the defining attributes of Master's-level study?

Enhancement Themes

The Enhancement Themes aim to enhance the student learning experience in Scottish higher education by identifying specific areas (Themes) for development.

Symposium series

The symposium series supports sectoral reflection on key areas identified as part of the Enhancement Themes

Welcome to the Enhancement Themes website

The Enhancement Themes are selected by the Scottish higher education sector and they provide a means for institutions, academic staff, support staff and students to work together in enhancing the learning experience.

Each Theme facilitates both sharing and learning from current and innovative national and international practice. In addition, the Themes promote the collective development of new ideas and models for innovation in learning and teaching.

Support for the Enhancement Themes is provided by the Quality Assurance Agency for Higher Education, Scotland (QAA).
