Kia ora koutou,

I’ll link to the full 27 page PDF below but some staff may be interested in the UC focus of this Project Report completed in November 2018.

Research undertaken at University of Canterbury
Report prepared by: Valerie Sotardi and Erik Brogt.Other team members:Abbey Woods and Ellen Turnbull

‘Student participants were 239 first-year undergraduate students (74.5% female, 25.5% male)
enrolled in five first-year courses at the University of Canterbury: law (n = 77; 32.2%), education (n =
75; 31.4%), chemistry (n = 47; 19.7%), philosophy (n = 22; 9.2%), and communication (n = 18; 7.5%).

Staff participants were recruited through the Heads of Department/School at the University of
Canterbury. They were asked to distribute the recruiting email to staff teaching into the first-year
courses. Forty-nine staff members completed the (anonymous) survey.’
