From Dunedin to Dunedin: Supporting students in the changing world of higher education

Godfrey, Helen; Richards, Kendall

Abstract

Against the background of the widening access agenda in higher education in Scotland, this article describes the initiatives taken by Napier University to address the issues. The article explores different models of learning support, argues that one of the better means of support is to embed learning skills in the curriculum, provides examples of how this has been achieved, and outlines some of the issues that must be addressed if curriculum integration is to be realised.
