Linkedin ‘campaign’ (START Group with posts)

A group on Supporting transition to HE / Resources for those teaching 1st-year undergraduates/ … - that others can follow in order to

1. find out about START resources & what can be useful for them (gain knowledge, improve their teaching practice)
2. learn about other useful resources on the topic(s)

* Whom will we target? Teachers, faculty developers, HE authorities, …� * What kind of posts will be of interest for each of these target groups?

Sample posts for all/some of the categories of posts based on START resources & indications on how to sustain this category of posts

We are aiming at 20-30 posts, ideally with a strategy of maintaining the Group active for a couple of months after project end

Notes multiplier events

Group 1

If in France, it should be in French…

3 different topics, same participants (

1. Sharing experiences to understand how in each country the gap can be reduced
2. We present our recommendations, resources and ask their feedback
3. Final message - sharing of what can be done, evaluating in their context

​

Notes multiplier events

Group 2

Same event 3 times, open to all Europe - it might be interesting to see other realities

Parents, school counselors, principals, high school and 1st year students…

Is their feedback still valuable?

*English would be ok for Slovenia

* It could be interesting to record the sessions and share them online so they’re also another resource

Notes multiplier events

Group 3

Have breakout rooms so school teachers and university professors could draw the transition roadmap of their country

Have them to discuss how could they better help students in the different moments identified

Have the same session in different languages

Notes multiplier events

Group 4

Have the same event, 3 times, in different languages - English, Spanish and French

Open session to discuss about issues related to transition, trying to look for ways to tackle them in a different way:

• French- target: school counselors, unis (African as well)
• Spanish - target: school counselors, universities (Spain, LA)
• English - same target (+Asian unis)
