Reflections on student-staff research partnership: Opportunities, benefits, & challenges (2018)
Presentation / Conference
West, H., & Hill, J. (2018, August). Reflections on student-staff research partnership: Opportunities, benefits, & challenges. Paper presented at Royal Geographical Society Annual International Conference, Cardiff, Wales

This paper explores the opportunities for student-staff partnership in the research process, before progressing to examine the benefits and challenges of such engagement. Using the model of Healey (2005), opportunities for student partnership in rese... Read More about Reflections on student-staff research partnership: Opportunities, benefits, & challenges.

Improving student outcomes through dialogic feed-forward assessment (2018)
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.

Small rock-slope failures conditioned by Holocene permafrost degradation: a new approach and conceptual model based on Schmidt-hammer exposure-age dating, Jotunheimen, southern Norway (2018)
Journal Article
Matthews, J. A., Winkler, S., Wilson, P., Tomkins, M. D., Dortch, J. M., Mourne, R. W., …Vater, A. E. (2018). Small rock-slope failures conditioned by Holocene permafrost degradation: a new approach and conceptual model based on Schmidt-hammer exposure-age dating, Jotunheimen, southern Norway. Boreas, 47(4), 1144-1169. https://doi.org/10.1111/bor.12336

© 2018 Collegium Boreas. Published by John Wiley & Sons Ltd Rock-slope failures (RSFs) constitute significant natural hazards, but the geophysical processes that control their timing are poorly understood. However, robust chronologies can provide v...

© 2018 Elsevier B.V. Specific tests of autosuccession (equivalent to non-replacement change in species composition) are made, in which pioneer communities on roadside verges and areas of patterned ground disturbed by cryoturbation are compared with m...

Improving the student learning experience through dialogic feed-forward assessment (2018)
Presentation / Conference
Hill, J., & West, H. (2018, June). Improving the student learning experience through dialogic feed-forward assessment. Paper presented at Unravelling Assessment and Feedback Literacy Symposium, University of Surrey

Assessment feedback gains consistently low satisfaction scores in national surveys of student satisfaction, with most concern surrounding its timeliness, quality and effectiveness. We present the results of a two year qualitative study, thematically... Read More about Improving the student learning experience through dialogic feed-forward assessment.

Building learning communities to enhance assessment (2018)
Presentation / Conference

Chronosequences of ant nest mounds from glacier forelands of Jostedalsbreen, southern Norway: Insights into the distribution, succession and geo-ecology of red wood ants (Formica lugubris and F. aquilonia) (2018)
Journal Article
Hill, J., Vater, A., Geary, A., & Matthews, J. (2018). Chronosequences of ant nest mounds from glacier forelands of Jostedalsbreen, southern Norway: Insights into the distribution, succession and geo-ecology of red wood ants (Formica lugubris and F. aquilonia). Holocene, 28(7), 1113-1130. https://doi.org/10.1177/0959683618761551

© 2018, The Author(s) 2018. Red wood ant nest mounds were investigated on terrain deglaciated since the mid-18th century at three outlet glaciers of the Jostedalsbreen ice cap in southern Norway. Chronosequence methodology was combined with a geo-eco...
