Embedding student initiatives into university structures image #1

This workshop presentation is from the “Challenging Connections” EAUC Annual Conference 2015, presented by Kristine Nitsolova and Anna-Kathrin Lindner from Glasgow University Environmental Sustainability Team and falls under the Learning, Teaching and Research Conference Stream.

In this interactive session participants will discuss an innovative attempt to reshape staff-student engagement, using the evolution of an initiative created by a former Green Gown Award winner as a case study. We deliver a brief introduction of how Glasgow University Environmental Sustainability Team has been working towards a greater integration into University structures. Participants will be given the roles of staff and students and a context and asked to interact according to those roles. A group discussion will follow drawing on the feedback of participants. The aim is to gain a deeper understanding of both student and staff perspectives.
