Full Description:: Students as Partners is about harnessing student and staff creativity via collaborative partnerships to enhance teaching and learning. As a way of thinking, students as partners shifts teaching and learning and student engagement from something academics do to students to an endeavour done with students. At UQ and internationally, students as partners has led to the transformation of teaching practices and positive student outcomes.

UQ, guided by the Student Strategy, is moving toward a model of Teaching & Learning where Students as Partners is ‘business as usual’. The Students as Partners Showcase will give you an opportunity to understand with this can and does look like at UQ by bringing together UQ students, academics, and professional staff to share examples of, and explore in depth, this innovative model for teaching and learning enhancement.

The event will be an opportunity to:
• Share Students as Partners practices, ideas, and experiences at UQ
• Discover new ways of considering Students as Partners in higher education
• Network with UQ Students as Partners practitioners
• Harness the creativity of staff and students to address teaching and learning challenges.
