Morag M. Casey

摘要:

人们普遍认为,第一年课程的保留率和相关完成率是英国大学关注的一个领域,格拉斯哥大学的物理和天文学课程是例外。班级往往很大,因此,学生在学术和社会层面的融合可能难以实现;一些学生认为,从中学到高等教育的过渡可能是一个紧张的过渡,缺乏个人兴趣和支持。为了解决这些问题,提交人被雇用担任新的部门职位,即第一年学习支助主任。这个职位的职责主要是为一年级本科生实施更好的个人接触和学术监测和支持战略。本文的目的是提出的方式,希望学习支持主任的作用将产生积极影响的方面即将到来的学年。

英文摘要:

It is generally accepted that the retention and associated completion rates for first year classes are an area of concern for UK universities, and physics and astronomy classes at the University of Glasgow are exception. Classes are often large and, as result, student integration on academic and social levels can be difficult to achieve; some students perceive a lack of personal interest and support in what can be a stressful transition from secondary to tertiary education. In order to address these issues, the author has been employed in a new departmental post, Director of Learning Support for First Year. The remit of this post is primarily the implementation of an improved personal contact and academic monitoring and support strategy for first year undergraduates. The purpose of this paper is to present the ways in which it is hoped that the role of Director of Learning Support will positively impact on aspects of the forthcoming academic year.
