How are we, explicitly or tacitly, characterising ‘good’ education, both in the disciplines and across the institution? What are the relationships between our research and student education? By working in partnership with students to build on the synergies between our research, our professional fields and our education, both within and across departments, could we develop an even more distinctive and effective learning and research community? 
 
In this session we will draw on both philosophical underpinnings (Gadamer 2004) and scientific perspectives (Wieman and Gilbert 2015) to take a fresh look at the relationship between education, research and scholarship: what is at the heart of the academic mission? Is the purpose of higher education to provide individuals with what they need to succeed in a competitive world, or is it advancing ‘the global common good’ (UNESCO 2015)? By integrating research and student education more readily, can we achieve both?
 
Considering issues of academic freedom for both academics and students (Macfarlane 2012), we will then look at new possibilities for enhancing programmes of study, using UCL’s Connected Curriculum initiative as a case study. Connected Curriculum (UCL 2015, Fung forthcoming) takes a distinctive approach to research-based education. Exploring its benefits and some examples of its application at UCL and beyond, we will also consider barriers to educational change, including the need to reward and promote staff who commit time and expertise to education and education leadership (Fung and Gordon 2016). 
 
We will finish with time for questions and comments: how relevant are these issues and approaches for staff and students at the University of Swansea?

The interaction between students and teachers is of course of significant importance to Swansea University particularly as we move forward with the Teaching Excellence Framework Agenda. Professor Dilly Fung ( University College London) will help us to explore how the Co-Creation framework can be developed further at Swansea University.

A Panel Discussion and workshop will explore in more detail what Scholarship, Recognition and Co-Creation means at Swansea University and how we can embed this in practice. Participants will identify the key priorities and issues that should be explored together, barriers, and benefits involved and an outline of the suggested way forward for the Swansea Approach.

This session will provide impactful personal development . Co-Creation is critical to the successful interaction between students and teachers, particularly in light of the Teaching Excellence Framework - Professor Jane Thomas, Director of SALT

The aims of the day are to share practical examples where learners have been involved in curriculum development and research; identify the benefits and barriers in implementing such approaches and explore existing practices and a way forward for Swansea. This event will be of interest to all academic staff and departments. Invited guests representing each College and the student union will also be in attendance. Booking is essential.
