About this Podcast:

How do any of us learn at university? On the one hand it seems so straightforward, particularly when you read many of the policy and guidance documents in higher education (HE). However, we are not so sure. In working with students something magical can happen that we cannot quite put our finger on. In this series of podcasts we take common subjects in HE learning and teaching and explore what is going on.
