Join evasys at the UKAT Annual Conference 2024
8 – 9 April, University of Greenwich
See you at the UKAT Annual Conference 2024?
evasys is delighted to support the 2024 UKAT Annual Conference, taking place 8-9 April at University of Greenwich.
Organised by UK Advising and Tutoring (UKAT) – a professional body of practitioners focused on all aspects of student advising and personal tutoring in UK higher education – this year’s conference has an overarching theme of “Personal Tutoring in the Spotlight” and will cover a range of topics including:
Chat with our team about their expertise in student experience initiatives
The conference has a full and varied programme, covering a wealth of topics related to student advising and personal tutoring, and evasys will be represented in the schedule by Glenda Saint John, who is running a session on Day 2 of the event:
Co-creating evaluation and impact measures for academic advising and personal tutor provision
On Tuesday 9th April, from 11.20 am until 12.15 pm in Room QA238, evasys Head of Engagement Glenda Saint John will be leading a session titled ‘Unlocking Potential: co-creating evaluation and impact measures for academic advising and personal tutor provision’.
Glenda will utilise the dynamic World Café format, where participants rotate around tables, to produce a session aimed at engaging participants in lively and collaborative discussion about how personal tutoring provision could be evaluated to ensure maximum impact. While some data can be found in the various methods of capturing student voice, very little capturing of the staff voice in this area has been undertaken.
This session will provide a platform to express this staff voice by exploring what your needs and wants are in relation to personal tutoring evaluation and impact measures, resulting in the generation of group defined ideas and inspiration to take back to your institution.
Tapping into survey data across the student lifecycle
The evasys insights and evaluation solution manages surveys right across the student journey, providing datapoints that benefit academic advisers and personal tutors by identifying student sentiment and facilitating interventions where needed to ensure student success.
The evasys survey ecosystem encompasses a wide range of survey topics; from the standard module and course evaluation through to the more specific areas around pre-arrival, student belonging, first year engagement, national surveys and graduate outcomes.
In addition to her Day 2 session, Glenda will also be available to chat to delegates on the evasys stand in the exhibition area.
If you have any questions around how personal tutors and academic advisors can harness student survey data to enhance their efforts, or on how surveys can be used to measure the impact of academic advising itself, please pop by and ask Glenda – she has vast experience of working with UK institutions across the full gambit of higher education surveys.
