Welcome to our Learning Conversations

The Learning Development Team at the University of Plymouth (UoP) has been working with students at all levels and across disciplines for 10 years.

The team (introduced below) is led by John Hilsdon. Over the last five years he has helped to put UoP on the map nationally by securing a role

for the university in LearnHigher, which is a Centre for Excellence in Teaching and Learning (CETL) and by becoming the founder editor of the Journal JLDHE.

We are committed to helping students learn, enjoy and get the best that they can from their university experience.

As the Learn Higher CETL comes to a close, Learning Development sees only new possibilities opening up. The expertise resulting from having

special responsibility for the critical thinking and reflection skills area has led to pedagogic enquiry, ideas for new approaches to student learning and a strong desire to reach all learners in the university.

This Learning Conversation gives us a chance to listen to what you think learners need from us as well as giving you a chance to check on what we already have to offer you. You can find out more about these projects by clicking on the links below.
