The Union of Students in Ireland (USI) is calling for students to take part in focus groups exploring teaching & learning during Covid-19.
The Union of Students in Ireland are participating in the National Forum’s Next Steps for Teaching & Learning: Moving Forward Together project to identify what we have learned from the last year, and how this can be applied in designing the teaching & learning experience going forward.
Call For Participants for Student Focus Groups
As part of the project, USI are holding student focus groups on the 1st and 2nd June to gather your feedback on what has worked well, and what hasn’t worked so well over the last year and how this learning can be applied moving forward. The feedback gathered will be recorded anonymously.
Everyone who participates in this focus group will be issued a 30 euro voucher in recognition of their time.
Focus groups will take approximately 1 hour.
USI will be recording meetings to aid with the purposes of note taking, but will delete the recordings following the completion of this project.
