"VU has seen a sharp uptake of students starting degrees this month, adding to the evidence that job scarcity & the COVID-19 are increasing demand for university courses." @VicUniVC with @TimDoddEDU in @australian#remotelearning
A fantastic effort by all involved and a great introduction to @victoriauninews and the Block model for the nearly 500 students starting their studies next week. #vicuni#FYC

Extraordinary research from VU's @RoanPlotz about the red-billed oxpecker - a species of bird who protects the rare black rhinos by calling out when humans are near.

@AndrewSmallridg & @LKonjarski with @victoriauninews #FYC colleagues at 1st Final Friday 2020 & start of the 3rd year of teaching students in this revolutionary approach. I’m so incredibly proud of what FYC and all VU staff have achieved for our students
Great advice from our plenary speaker Laurie Schneider, we have to move away from a deficit model and provide the best environment so all our students can THRIVE #sit19

Presentation workshop complete in beautiful Newcastle. Such a lot of interest on how the FYC and VU work with community, engage students and ... oh yes, block mode delivery. 😉
