“…Enhancing the progression experience of students Students and staff identified a number of ways in which the progression experience could be enhanced; these replicated previous findings from the Student Progression and Transfer (SPAT) project (Carter et al 2003) as well as a number of small-scale research projects (Knox 2005;Penketh and Goddard 2008). Table 5 summarises the results across all questionnaires.…”

“…We were also told that a man called X from the university would be visiting us at our partner college and telling us all about our options for the third year but this did not happen and we did not know why. (Second year) Many of the factors outlined above have been identified in other research (Tierney and Slack 2005;Greenbank 2007;Penketh and Goddard 2008; Winter and Dismore 2010) and it has been highlighted that the culture of the foundation degree as well as the institutional habitus of FEIs may be more conducive to promoting particular ways of thinking and learning which privilege more classroom-based activities, surface learning and student support (Young 2002;Rowley 2005;Greenbank 2007). This may be in conflict with the institutional habitus of many universities, with their focus on theory and criticality.…”

“…Terms & Conditions of access and use can be found at http://www.tandfonline.com/page/termsand-conditions Introduction A smooth transition to university is crucial for students as it has an important influence on their social life and academic performance (Tait and Godfrey 2001;Heffernan et al 2010;Pike and Harrison 2011). An in-depth understanding of students' experience of transition prepares universities to manage and support students effectively (Penketh and Goddard 2008;Barron and D'Annunzio-Green 2009). Current transition research mainly focuses on students entering the first year of a programme (Parker et al 2006;Allan, Clarke, and Jopling 2009;McCune et al 2010).…”
