Abstract | The impetus for this study was a concern for first-year Bachelor of Education (Primary) students, and whether students experienced or engaged with the university support services offered by the university. My interest also grew from my experiences of teaching first-year Bachelor of Education (Primary) students. Within this context there developed a passion to understand and optimise learning experiences for all students, particularly those who had gained entry to the degree with low scores or through alternative pathway entry. |
