@LTHEchat A3 #LTHEchat identify the level of knowledge and support based on needs once the basics have been covered. Setting a fun collaborative task can support peer learning without assuming that all have access to laptops and Internet prior to arrival. Let them explore in a safe space.

[Dr Luciana De Martin Silva @lu_dms]

@LTHEchat A2 @LTHEchat - Have specific students (2nd/3rd years?) to champion the services offered, preferably those who are heavily involved in sports & could offer different ways and spaces to support their peers (e.g., vertical mentoring scheme offered as part of support services).

[Dr Luciana De Martin Silva @lu_dms]

@AdamNichol14 Amazing, Adam 🙌
