At FOTE11 Emily-Ann Nash of the NUS Higher Education Committee explored how students have differing expectations and motivations of higher education and how they may change in light of an increase in fees. She then explores how using technology effectively and purposely can enhance the student experience and encourage a positive effect on each students experience through their journey through higher education. Concluding with the NUS technology charter which students and their respective student unions will be pushing to make sure the technology agenda is high on the agenda and will hopefully ensure institutions do deliver, so that experiences of students from starting in their first year to entering into employment as graduates are equipped and ready for the 21st century environment.
