CreatorsEspinoza Ramos, G.
Description

In recent years, there has been a growing number of online courses developed in higher education in the United Kingdom, as they offer a flexible, affordable and accessible way for students to improve their employability skills. Consequently, universities have demonstrated increasing interest in adopting good practices in this delivery form, which can be embedded in courses and modules, thereby meeting this growing demand and improving the student learning experience.
This Students as Co-Creators (SCC) project investigated students' preferences regarding the design of blended learning modules at the Westminster Business School. This project used mixed methods; the data was collected by using an online survey questionnaire that was conducted between 1st April and 30th June, and semi-structured interviews were carried out between June 30th and July 20th, 2024. In addition, the data were obtained from 111 University of Westminster students via an online survey questionnaire, followed by ten semi-structured interviews.
This webinar will showcase the findings from a project that involved the participation of three second-year undergraduate students and two senior lecturers at the School of Management and Marketing at the Westminster Business School
