This project integrated a personal tutor model delivered as part of core Exercise and Sport Science (ESS) and Exercise Physiology (EP) large year 1 unit (N=250-300) in Semester 1 2024. Each tutorial group was staffed by a continuing / contracted academic who only took a single group, fostering an embedded ‘personal tutor’ with the unit. A 2024 SEG grant permitted dovetailed partnering with students, to co-design and co-teach structured content focused on transition and belonging, groupwork and communication skills. The presentation will discuss results of the project from student, student-tutor and staff perspectives.
