Celebrating NSS 2017

Recognition of Excellence in Supporting and Inspiring Students

The University recognises and celebrates good practice and exceptional performance. So on Monday 22 January course leaders of courses which have had an exceptional performance in terms of overall NSS performance relative to subject area and/or in terms of greatest overall improvement were invited to a celebratory event at Fyvie Hall.

The event recognised the achievements of teams excelling in supporting and inspiring students, as reflected in the NSS results for 2017. The celebration event was an opportunity to hear from colleagues about their views and experience of supporting and inspiring students as well as share best practice.

The event opened with a welcome and introduction by Roland Dannreuther DVC Student Experience.

This was followed by members of the Student Union (Dan Seamarks, Ethel Tambudzai, Ludovica Siniscalchi & Joseph Ikebudu) who explained what they were doing to support teaching and learning.

Christopher Biggs, Course Leader for BSc Pharmacology and Physiology, then followed explaining their 6 point plan and concluding that one had to be BOLD and publicise the positive things you know that you are doing!
