Giving voice to the student experience: methods, approaches and evidence
Giving voice to the student experience: methods, approaches and evidence
Economic and democratic agendas underlie the introduction of the Foundation Degree (Fd); an economic drive to up skill the workforce amidst global market place competition, whilst simultaneously widening participation in HE and stimulating lifelong learning. Critically positioned within and spanning these two competing agendas is the Fd student. In these times of changing focus in HE, it is crucial that the voice of the student experience is not drowned out by increased political and socio-economic volume. This study aims to capture the lived experience of a cohort of students undertaking the Fd in Health and Social Care at the University of Southampton

Abstract
Economic and democratic agendas underlie the introduction of the Foundation Degree (Fd); an economic drive to up skill the workforce amidst global market place competition, whilst simultaneously widening participation in HE and stimulating lifelong learning. Critically positioned within and spanning these two competing agendas is the Fd student. In these times of changing focus in HE, it is crucial that the voice of the student experience is not drowned out by increased political and socio-economic volume. This study aims to capture the lived experience of a cohort of students undertaking the Fd in Health and Social Care at the University of Southampton
