Lucy Chilvers; Senior Lecturer in Learning and Teaching
As an Academic Developer based within the University of Brighton’s central Learning and Teaching Hub, I am involved in the provision of a wide range of professional development for academic staff and institution-wide initiatives. I lead our Co:Lab Curriculum Design Process, and in my role as Learning and Teaching Partner, I support Architecture, Technology and Engineering courses in their enhancement of course design and delivery. I lead Brighton’s Active Learning Network satellite group, a community of practice for exchanging L&T practices for actively engaging students in more creative, playful and participative ways. I also teach, assess and mentor across our PG Cert in Academic Practice and Professional Recognition Scheme.
My research explores two key areas of my practice, firstly the curriculum design process, involving the institutional processes, course team collaboration and digital aspects that enable innovation. The second area of my research explores the embedding of peer learning and support across the student experience, both within the curriculum and as co/extra-curricular opportunities.
Across both these areas of research, and in all my practice I bring my values for student-staff partnership working, and the co-creation of new knowledge and pedagogic practices. I have expertise in facilitating and sparking effective collaboration between a range of stakeholders and seek to support course teams and departments to work more effectively together.
I play an active role in a number of HE networks, including membership of the steering groups for the SEDA Curriculum Design Network, and the Association for Peer Learning and Support. I regularly disseminate practice through AdvanceHE, SEDA and QAA. Having recently completed a QAA-funded project exploring making the language of assessment inclusive led by UWE, I am delighted to be beginning a new QAA Collaborative Enhancement research project ‘Curriculum Design and Review: Pillars of Impact - led by Kingston, and collaborating with Warwick, Edinburgh and Staffordshire.
