A Student Engagement Framework for Scotland - sparqs and sector partners

A Student Engagment Framework for Scotland is a document endorsed and owned by all the sector agencies and representative bodies in the university and college sector.
Student engagement is fundamental to universities and colleges - whether in learning and teaching, quality processes or governance. But what precisely does the term mean in reality, and what is the implication of student engagment for practice across the sector?
