Project background and objectives
The purpose of this project is to enhance learner outcomes at FE level by working to further develop learners’ skills around academic writing and research. Specifically, the project aims to equip FE tutors with enhanced knowledge and skills regarding the development of academic writing skills amongst FE learners. This will enable FE learners to improve performance in the Welsh Baccalaureate and extended project qualifications.
Through collaboration with a leading expert at the UF’s University Writing Programme, Dr Matthew Jones, and his colleagues, the delegation are developing a suite of professional learning resources aimed at FE tutors. In addition to the resources, the partnership have organised a professional learning event to deliver their findings to a wider audience across Wales. These will be a professional learning opportunity for FE professionals and will build upon the resources developed.
