Checking in with undergraduate supervisors: a follow up session to An introduction to undergraduate supervision (essay and problem-sheet based subjects)

Prerequisites

Do you have further questions following your recent supervising experiences? Do you have ideas or experiences that you’d like to share with others? This interactive session is for anyone who attended the workshop ‘An Introduction to Undergraduate Supervision’ and who has started supervising. This 90-minute session aims to follow up with new undergraduate supervisors on their teaching experiences and to answer any questions they might have.

The session will include:

• Q&A about supervisory experience
• Sharing of examples of supervisory practice
• Small-group discussions with peers on teaching experiences
