Ultraversity Testimonials

My role as Advisory Teaching Assistant was the first of it’s kind in the country.  I am based in the Children Families and Learning Department within the local authority. Enrolling onto the BA (Hons) Learning Research Technology degree enabled my role and me to develop. I have been able to focus and target my practice, in order to plan, make changes, and reflect. Everything that has been planned had an effect on my role, understanding, and knowledge. My organisation and myself can see the impact my work has had and can have in the future. I have new skills, like using action research, being able to understand research and the impact it can have, presenting to an audience appropriately and effectively, having an impact on their role and understanding. All skills I have learnt have proved valuable; the degree has given me a more purposeful role and secure place, now, and in the future."
