Centre for Promoting Learner Autonomy

The centre builds on work in several subject disciplines which have developed significant ways of promoting students as autonomous learners through transformative models of autonomy. We draw on innovative pedagogies, learning processes, learning environments. The centre promotes learning through diverse activities including peer tutoring, student-led conferences, student-led assessment, simulations, internationalising student activity. We bring these together and create new opportunities for learning particularly through digital media. Students will have the opportunity to engage with other students nationally and internationally through partner arrangements already developed by centre staff including work with the Higher Education Academy.
