Dr Katarzyna Zdunczyk

ADD strengthens its national impact – WonkHE opinion piece
Active Digital Design (ADD) has been perceived positively by students, which is very welcome and has given us confidence to continue our research in this area. We received lovely emails and social media posts from students which we happily retweeted and shared. However, Anna and Christine have also shared their approach and opinion about hybrid education via a WonkHE opinion piece. This is a great national online platform giving voice to academics in HE.

PGCert Management Education – applications rising
We are really pleased to report that this years’ applications are on the rise. We will welcome our fourth cohort in January and we will introduce our students then. However we can say already that this will be a diverse and vibrant cohort with a great mix of students from different countries, backgrounds and experiences. We very much look forwards to January 2021. Applications are still open until the end of November. https://www.surrey.ac.uk/postgraduate/management-education-pgcert-2021
More research in hybrid education and ADD
In our quest of understanding the impact of hybrid education better, we are pleased to say that Dr Will Lanham-New (CME) https://www.surrey.ac.uk/people/william-lanham-new will explore in collaboration with Nutritional Sciences the levels of student interaction with the hybrid model in the context of rituals.
Dr Andrew Hill, Department of Business Transformation, SBS and lecturer in Business Analytics https://www.surrey.ac.uk/people/andy-hill is also looking at the impact of hybrid education and will work with Christine and Anna to explore the workflow and navigational engagement of students in SurreyLearn. We will share more insights in the coming months.
