Kathy Armour and Chris Wilkinson spent some time on campus talking with students to understand what they think a UoB education will look like in 2026.
Students were keen on the notion of the campus as a community. They want to do even more on campus while they are here and they were exctited about the new Green Heart as long as it offers them more ‘things to do’.
There were also some interesting comemnts about allowing students to take ‘extra credits’ as they do in some other countries.
Particularly interesting, however, was the perception that it is too ‘risky’ to be adventurous in choosing widening horizons modules. If we wanted to extend these options, we would need to consider carefully how we assess.
