Abstract | This article examines ways in which pathway students on Foundation courses can be supported in a manner that will help them to engage more with their studies. Based on research carried out in a post-92 university with both domestic and international students, the paper argues for more of a real world focus to our teaching. In support of this, ideas are offered on the basis of responses from students themselves. The purpose of this is to give a stronger voice to students in the shaping of pedagogic approaches on pathway courses, hopefully leading to better engagement with studies. |
