Time: 10.30am - 4pm
Venue: Hotel Russell, Russell Square, London
The National Inquiry in Higher Education (Dearing Report 1997) recommended that UK higher education should develop and introduce Progress Files by the 2005/6 academic year. Progress Files will consist of a transcript of a student's achievement and a Personal Development Plan (PDP). If you are still trying to understand the process of introducing PDP for your students, what systems are available and how you might make them work in practice then this workshop will be of interest to you. It will also be of interest to any academic within a science-related discipline interested in finding out more about PDPs and anyone with a responsibility for developing or implementing the Progress Files or PDP.
The general aim of this workshop is to help academics in the sciences to explore the most effective ways of implementing PDP with their own students and making them operate successfully. There will be an opportunity to hear about several PDP models which have already been developed and successfully implemented with undergraduates.
Further information, programme details and online registration can be found on our website under the events section at http://www.physsci.heacademy.ac.uk/Events/EventList.aspx.
There is NO registration fee for this workshop for those working in UK HE and lunch and refreshments will be provided.
