Student Engagement Week - What was it all about?

Student Engagement Week... What was it all about?

So, last week saw Brighton SU's first ever Student Engagement Week, aka

I <3 MY EDUCATION.

Arguably one of the most successful campaigns we have done at the SU, it was visible at each campus every day of the week and was designed around the principles of celebrating the different pockets of good practice across our vast institution, and engaging our membership into becoming a critical partner in their education, rather than a passive participant! As well as giving the students an informal route to tell us exactly what they thought about different aspects of their educational experience at Brighton Uni.

We focused on different aspects of the academic experience, and had each day of the week dedicated to representation, quality resources, a graduate career, feedback and learning & teaching.

Having received over 1000 pieces of 'Keep, Stop, Start' feedback from students, this contributes towards part of the research for the upcoming QAA Student Written Submission, as well as fully equipping all of our Union Representatives with student feedback on issues that actually matter to them.

With feedback ranging from library opening and accessibility, to fish and chips on a Friday! The variety was huge, and gave incredible insight to the different issues affecting students on different courses and campuses!

We are now the process of coding all the data we received, and will soon begin the analysis!

So all in all, an brilliant success! A boost for BSU! And an epic amount of academic engagement with our membership!
I am incredibly proud of everything that we have been able to achieve, and all I can say for now is watch this space!
