  7. What we’re hoping it will do • Invigorate tutorial system • Increase professional awareness • Improve/maintain employability • USP • Complement existing activity

  8. Supporting it … • STLC-owned at the moment • Beta-testing • Staff education • Start of Academic Year briefing day • PEARL • Pioneering Education – a resource for learning • Tablet to each student

  9. Ethics … two ways

  10. Concerns • Tutor engagement • Staff and Students • It’s yet another system • T/T meetings: NESS / Eportfolio • Purge rather than little-and-often • What we have done won’t suit everyone • Other subject areas • Individual students

  11. Summary In supporting the 2012 offer package, we are trying to increase awareness and stimulate engagement with professional standards. We see this as part of the student’s professional development, their lifelong learning, and as such a key part of their professional practice.
