The quality of teaching at UoN varies. Some lecturers are very passionate and dedicated. They are invested in helping us understand concepts and our course.
One unique thing I picked is how my HR lecturer madam Margaret went out of her way to help us revive the HR Students’ Association which had collapsed in the past years. This really motivates and pushes us to go beyond ourselves and build our networks in the HR industry.
However at the same time, some lecturers rely heavily on outdated notes and have minimal classroom engagement . Student participation heavily depends on the lecturer therefore sometimes students are demotivated and lose concentration/focus due to monotonous teaching styles.
From my experience I believe students would greatly appreciate a shift from heavy lecture sessions to sessions integrated with visual presentations, gamified learning and real life experiences.Relatable and engaging content will motivate learners more .
My academic journey at UoN has molded me beyond coursework.It has taught me how to get out of my comfort zone, adapt to different scenarios and push forward even with little support. I am able to take intiative and seek knowledge outside the class and my lecturers .
For Students who are ready to take ownership/accountability of their academics,UoN would be a strong foundation for that . I would recommend it to anyone ready to grow resilience , self motivation and take up space.
