Project Summary

Student Centred Adult Learning Engagement in Higher Education (SCALE) is a project aimed at supporting lecturers delivering degree level courses in universities, colleges and other educational providers.

Following research identifying the learning needs of students in secondary education, this project explores how lecturers are supported and equipped to meet students’ needs when they progress into Higher Education. This project will explore needs that lectures identify, and also their examples of best practice. It will respond to the needs, and collate the best practice, adding to this to create a toolkit to facilitate high quality learning support for students working at degree-level. The resulting toolkit will be made freely available online in the partner languages of English, Italian, Polish and Spanish.

Staff development will be provided for lecturers through an e-course that will be piloted, refined and published as part of the SCALE project. The result will be the upskilling of at least 80 lecturers during the development of the project, with a tried and tested high quality resources established to support many more following the launch of the toolkit.
