Who better to talk of first year student experience than the students! Max from Victoria University said from friends accounts he thought uni would be going into dark lecture theatres & sleeping 😴. He was shocked at VU, no lectures, interactive, engaging classrooms & he loved it!

Congrats🏆so great to see students as partners Victoria University rewarded in this way.

Well done Loretta, good to see we are spreading the word #FYC

Really pleased to be one of the international delegates for #sit19 and looking forward to hearing about transitioning students into #highered

Great advice from our plenary speaker Laurie Schneider, we have to move away from a deficit model and provide the best environment so all our students can THRIVE #sit19

A fantastic effort by all involved and a great introduction to Victoria University and the Block model for the nearly 500 students starting their studies next week. #vicuni #FYC

"VU has seen a sharp uptake of students starting degrees this month, adding to the evidence that job scarcity & the COVID-19 are increasing demand for university courses." @VicUniVC with Tim Dodd in The Australian #remotelearning
