You can choose to do a project that is focused on one subject, course, or faculty, as a way of testing an idea that could have broader application. Or it doesn’t have to be aligned to your faculty. It can be any area of interest you have, as long as it is aligned to an area of academic engagement and partnership.
Here are the following project focus areas to choose from:
- Assessment practice: How your knowledge and understanding of class content is tested e.g. sit-down exams, practical exams, take home essays.
- Teaching practice: How lecturers and tutors teach you e.g. lectures, seminars, flipped learning.
- Policy and process review: How rules and systems at UTS are applied to students e.g. enrolment, special consideration, timetabling.
- Academic support: Academic help offered to students outside of the classroom e.g. writing skills workshops, referencing guides, digital skills, peer learning groups.
- Inclusivity in learner engagement: How diverse learner needs are supported in the classroom e.g. neurodiverse students, students from non-English speaking backgrounds.
