London South Bank University is hosting the joint Aspire and London East Thames Gateway Aimhigher Partnerships' Annual Conference on Friday 16 July 2010 from 10am-3.30pm, at the Keyworth Centre, Keyworth Street, London SE1 6NG. This student-led conference aims to bring practitioners, students and teachers together to discuss the roles that students currently fulfil and the possibilities and challenges they produce. There will be representation from ambassadors, associates, mentors and tutors who will give personal insights into the work that they do. Workshops and talks will give participants the opportunity to consider: What makes a ‘good’ student ambassador? How does / should an ambassador operate in a classroom setting? What are the difficulties in working with ambassadors – is there room for improvement? How do we develop ambassadors’ skills? What is the future for student-centred projects?
