The HERDSA Tasmania branch is unique as we are a small branch closely affiliated with one higher education institution: the University of Tasmania (UTAS).  As a result, our members support UTAS events, rather than the branch hosting specific events separately. For example, a number of our members were recently involved with organising, chairing or presenting at the UTAS Teaching Matters conference (Facilitating transformative learning).

‘Students as partners’ (SaP) is a particular approach to student engagement, which positions students as genuine contributors to all aspects of university life, including the curriculum. This webinar will provide examples of practices, which have engaged diverse students and lecturers as partners in global learning, at home and abroad, in the formal and co-curriculum during the past few years.
