The stage was set.<\/strong><\/p>\n We had colourful flyers, a pin-board designed by the students outlining the nine key principles<\/em> of the Strategy, an interactive counter poll,\u00a0plenty of sweets\u00a0and chocolate…we even got to wear\u00a0Learning and\u00a0Teaching strategy t-shirts (made by one of our very own team members!).<\/p>\n We asked the Team members to reflect on their\u00a0time at the Applicant Day.<\/p>\n We got a lot of positive feedback:<\/p>\n The applicant day was an amazing experience and a great way to get face to face interactions with people and the poll\/sweets was a great way to get people involved as it was interactive and different from most other stalls that were around us.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n …we had a fun and colourful board with the 9 principles of the strategy dotted around it and a Prezi of the strategy playing in the background. Students were very engaged and we received 39+ direct interactions with the poll and 60+ interactions using leaflets.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n …all those that interacted asked questions or took leaflets and there was a good amount of time to engage on a more personal level with students.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n <\/p>\n As well as some constructive feedback (which we will use to help make the next open day even better):<\/p>\n I feel like some kind of training would be useful as it was very difficult to explain such a vast strategy in the tiniest amount of time and I feel that this particular Applicant Day was a good way of working out how to do that so that it is easier for everyone else in the future.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Overall, the Applicant Day was a great way to spread the word about our project. It also gave students the opportunity to gain experience in creative collaboration, working within a team environment, communication, organisation and project management.<\/p>\n Until then,<\/p>\n Happy learning!<\/p>\n The Partners in Learning Team<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":92509,"featured_media":277,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[61,53,49,69,18,37,65,57,41,2,26,14,45,6,22],"class_list":["post-222","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-learning-and-teaching-strategy-student-edition","tag-applicant-day","tag-canterbury-christ-church","tag-cccu","tag-choices","tag-enhancement","tag-experience","tag-february","tag-fun","tag-higher-education","tag-learning","tag-project","tag-student","tag-teacher","tag-teaching","tag-university"],"acf":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"authorName":"","featuredImage":"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/partnersinlearning\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/481\/2016\/03\/IMG_4390-Resized.jpg","postExcerpt":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/partnersinlearning\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/222","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/partnersinlearning\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/partnersinlearning\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/partnersinlearning\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/92509"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/partnersinlearning\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=222"}],"version-history":[{"count":21,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/partnersinlearning\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/222\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":362,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/partnersinlearning\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/222\/revisions\/362"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/partnersinlearning\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/277"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/partnersinlearning\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=222"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/partnersinlearning\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=222"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/partnersinlearning\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=222"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"IMG_4368](\"https:\/\/blogs.canterbury.ac.uk\/partnersinlearning\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/481\/2016\/03\/IMG_4368-Resized.jpg\")
