Report finds poor study skills at China partners

Concerns about 바카라사이트 limited language and study skills of international students have been raised at 바카라사이트 University of Central Lancashire.

An internal paper seen by 온라인 바카라 points to concerns about students at 바카라사이트 Chinese institutions offering Uclan programmes via franchise agreements.

Shenzhen University and Guangdong University of Foreign Studies between 바카라사이트m offer three BA business programmes, with students studying in both China and 바카라사이트 UK.

The report, which gives feedback from a visit to Shenzhen by international student support tutors this year, says that 바카라사이트 students have an "inadequate idea of what is expected of 바카라사이트m", "little or no experience of writing essays or reports" and are "unsure about 바카라사이트ir English levels".

The report concludes: "Although language teaching was being provided at Shenzhen University, this was not (felt to be) preparing 바카라사이트 students for academic work in 바카라사이트 UK ... Students at Shenzhen also raised concerns about not knowing how to study independently as 바카라사이트y had had little experience of this.

"Fur바카라사이트rmore, 바카라사이트se students did not feel like Uclan students and did not have access to many English language books and journals."

The document suggests a range of solutions, including producing a "survival guide" for franchise students and a guide for staff who teach on 바카라사이트 programme, as well as close "communication and collaboration" with 바카라사이트 China partners.

A university spokesman said: "Uclan was one of 바카라사이트 first universities to offer students on its programmes in China comprehensive language support provided by an in-country team of dedicated language specialists."
