This publication will be a helpful, collaborative resource to all teaching staff at and beyond TUS. It may also generate further ideas for improving practice and enhancing student engagement. This first compendium has led to further publications where ‘pedagogical communities of practice’ continue to share our knowledge.
This case study outlines a first-year intervention at SETU Waterford using a timetabled weekly session to tackle common causes of academic failure such as time management, assessment planning. and study skills. It is intended for programme teams seeking practical, low-resource approaches to improving student progression and retention.
