The transition to university can pose significant challenges for students, especially those from diverse backgrounds or with limited familiarity with the academic expectations and complexities of this new learning environment. This presentation aims to showcase examples of intentional and student-centred design for learning implemented during the initial weeks of a first-year undergraduate occupational therapy Unit of Study. During the presentation, practical examples of intentional design decisions will be shared. By highlighting these examples and the intentional design decisions behind them, this presentation aims to provide examples of ways fellow colleagues might foster connections and support the transition into university and professional degree university programs.
