About me
As Peer Assisted Learning (PAL) Manager, I manage and lead on the operation and development of the three distinct strands of the PAL Scheme across the four campuses:
- PAL (Module, Programme and Technical PAL)
- PAL Mentoring (currently aimed at UWE Cares students)
- PAL Workshops (Academic Success; Careers and Emotional Resilience)
PAL supports the student experience both academically and socially, providing an opportunity for peer interaction and fostering a greater sense of community. The PAL Team, which is part of Student Success Services – Library Services and which falls within Learning Services, works in partnership with staff across the University, in particular the PAL Coordinators within the Departments.
I have a keen interest in supporting students at key transition points by encouraging them to engage with co-curricular opportunities which encourage cooperative learning and promote increased cohesion of the student group. I also take a strong interest in staff development and encouraging reflection and sharing of learning.
