What the tutors say ....
“I was absolutely delighted at the success of the 'Ride the Wave Event'. It was great to see the students so engaged in the task and obviously enjoying it too. The element of competition kept them motivated throughout the day.
The Working Knowledge Group provided an excellent learning experience for students. It was well organized and student interest was maintained throughout the day. The Business experts interacted fantastically well with students and they were impressed with the ideas from our A level cohort. Students left the event feeling they had achieved a great deal and they are all keen to do something like this again. An extremely impressive, engaging day.”Pam Hutchinson - Development Manager A Level Academy, Gateshead College
"I would recommend the experience for both students and also to enhance staff teaching activities”
Clare Ward, Gloucestershire College
“An excellent experience for students and staff. Most pleasing to see the development of the students as the days progressed. It was wonderful to see the eventual presentation from the students and see the results of their hard work.”
Philip Rowe, City of Bristol College
"Really innovative and informative approach and I enjoyed the way the learners were enthused and incentivised"
Tate Richardson, Cornwall College
“This delivered what we wanted. Feedback will be sought from students but ‘straw poll’ was positive. We have learnt a lot from this as have the students.”
Bryan Mills, Cornwall College.
"Great experience in terms of holistic representation of business within a teamwork environment. This has given many students a positive and realistic flavour of business life – so very practical overall"
Roman Cywinski, City of Bristol College
“The students ideas and the way they worked with each other were amazing. Their interactions with the experts were great to watch. Excellent day.”
Caroline Friggens, Cornwall College
"Lakes College believes that links with employers are important and view this activity as an essential part of our students programme. The links between learning and work have never been so vital and Make a Splash is the ideal tool to raise student awareness of enterprise and employability." Cyril Wheat, Assistant Principal - External Relations, Lakes college
"The purpose of the event was to give our students a taste of the world of enterprise, so they can link the vocational courses they are taking with us to later being able to set up a business of their own. The event was a great success as could be seen by their products and business action plans, and the dragons were very impressed with how innovative they were, and how well they worked together as a team." Sue Salter, Development Manager for Functional Skills, Castle College
