David Watson puts forward some propositions for debate.
- What is the student experience anyway? Lee Harvey argues that the consumerist approach to the student learning experience and student choice is illusory.
- The vital first year. Mantz Yorke and Bernard Longden undertake a study of UK students' experiences of their first year.
- Teaching and sandwiches. Brenda Little investigates the impact of work placements on student learning.
- How postgraduate students experience their research. Keith Trigwell finds that at Oxford it is the departmental intellectual climate that makes the difference.
- Experience and expectations. A winning essay from the Academy Student Awards.
