Module one

Those in Module One we have our first session this week on WEDNESDAY. 

I have updated the zoom link on your BAPP ACI programme page. 

Please make every effort to attend. 

 

 

Meet your Programme Team

 

Today is the last of our Welcome back activities and you have the opportunity to meet your BAPP ACI programme team. If you attended the Welcome Induction sessions earlier in the week you will know we have expanded our academic team this year and we welcome Dr Pedro De Senna to the team and continue to benefit from Sam's valued contribution to the programme. 

At our session today, 1200 (UK) Myself, Sam and Pedro will share our areas of practice-research with you in conversation, giving an insight into what we all do, the artistic approaches we take, where our research is taking us. Hopefully there will be some moments of interest and prompting of questions for you in the discussions we may have with you all moving forward into this term. 

You will hear from your Supervisors today also to being to make contact for the term, and should ensure by the end of this week that you have the BAPP calendar dowloaded from UniHub, your Study Plan for this term, and your module handbook for the module you are in now. 

Link for this afternoon:  

1200-1300 (UK/BST)

Welcome Week

 

 Hello, hoping you all had summers that were what they needed to be for you!

Term starts back on Sept 13 and we have our Welcome Week activities next week -

While these sessions are aimed at new students joining our community in Module One, you are warmly invited to attend also. The Welcome/Induction sessions on Monday / Tuesday will be a great way to meet new students and staff, refresh your memory of the Programme's aims and expectations and have a chance to take a short tour around Unihub to remind yourself of the resources available to support your study.

Later in the week we are running a session 'Meet your Programme Team' to offer a chance to get to know the areas of practice and research of your supervisors and meet new staff as we expand our Programme team. 

Sessions are as follows: time in UK (BST) repeated to accomodate time zones and schedules please come to one session that works for you!

 Firstly well done on making it through a challenging term, time, study period, life!!

Work submitted in May is now being reviewed and approved at the University Assesment Boards and you will receive confirmation of your grade at the end of June - this will be published on MyUnihub and you will receive feedback via email from your supervisor.

Over the summer period do take some time out, read, watch, connect as you are able with your practice and those around you.
