Let’s talk about drought: Students as research partners in creating resources for public engagement about climate change (2018)
Presentation / Conference
Horswell, M., West, H., & Quinn, N. (2018, August). Let’s talk about drought: Students as research partners in creating resources for public engagement about climate change. Paper presented at Royal Geographical Society Annual International Conference, Cardiff, Wales

In what is often considered a ‘wet’ country, conversations about drought are unusual in the UK. However, the intensity and frequency of dry events has increased, with significant droughts occurring within living memory. With climate predictions sugge...

Presentation / Conference
Hill, J., & West, H. (2018, August). Improving student outcomes through dialogic feed-forward assessment. Paper presented at International Geographical Union, Regional Conference, Quebec City, Canada

Assessment and feedback are fundamental to student learning and achievement and are arguably more influential to learning behaviour and learners’ experience than teaching. However, assessment feedback gains consistently low scores in national surveys... Read More about Improving student outcomes through dialogic feed-forward assessment.
