Discussion point:

What do you expect your life as an HE/university student to be like on a day-to-day basis?

Start by thinking about things like:

  • How will you attend classes/lectures?
  • How will you interact with other students?
  • How will you interact with teaching staff?
  • How will you access learning materials?
  • Where will you revise and study?

Also, think about:

  • How were these things done in the 20th century? How different is it today?
  • How much will your devices and computers be a part of your life as a student?
  • How might your Higher Education experience differ from your previous educational experience?
