Abstract

Specialist Studies in Education

This presentation will showcase a Students as Partners initiative at the University of the Sunshine Coast (USC). The initiative fosters a Students as Partners mindset that empowers change in pedagogical practice. A Students as Partners mindset is a process of student engagement where students and teachers learn and work together to cultivate authentic, possibly transformative, student learning and teaching enhancement (Healey, Flint, & Harrington, 2014). Such a mindset espouses the reciprocal nature of being a learner and teacher in any learning relationship or context (Pauli, Raymond-Barker, & Worrell, 2016).
