This interactive workshop provides you with the opportunity to critically reflect on your practice. It specifically focuses on processes involved with developing effective learning environments and approaches to student support and guidance within your discipline. It asks critical questions such as:

• Why do you establish the learning environment in this way?
• How do you support and guide students and why is this appropriate within your discipline?

Participants will be introduced to key pedagogic literature to support their critical reflections.
