Abstract
Student engagement has emerged as a core consideration for HEI’s linked to debates around
student experience and quality enhancement (Bryson and Hand, 2007). The fast changing
landscape of contemporary HE, coupled with the shifting patterns of student engagement is
necessitating change in approaches to and conceptualisations of teaching and learning that
are engaging for students. It falls to academic staff to facilitate such change. It is the premise
of this project, therefore, that if we are to effectually engage students, we must first engage
staff.
