Will academic tutorials improve learner success? - Des

Identify significance of academic tutorial for BTEC motor vehicle students (L1/L2 learners). They have literacy, numeracy and technical support. Will having an academic tutorial enhance the curriculum. There is also a drive to remove in class support and offer 121 support – how will this affect the students? Is support beneficial, will this support their academic grades (timely delivery) Is learning rate acceptable? Hopes to build a case in support of academic tutorials. Going to do a comparative study across the college. Will consult students and tutors at Kingston College and other colleges.
Triangulation: Observations/Interviews/Questionnaires
Timescale for project: April – June 2009
Peer input/questions: Need to consider means by which significance can be measured. Also has to take into account views against academic tutorials.
