Responding to change

Adapting our teaching
Below are examples of how we’ve adapted our teaching while restrictions are in place.
Course materials have been adapted to include a range of live and pre-recorded online activities including live seminars, pre-recorded video lectures and video demonstrations of practical skills.
Maintaining quality and student engagement remains a priority as we move towards more blended, flexible learning.
We are running some face-to-face sessions where it is possible and safe to do so.
Midwifery students will continue to go on placement and gain their practice experience, although this may work differently compared with previous years.
