4. Quality
¶ 1 Leave a comment on paragraph 1 0 The quality of BM and VE needs to be ensured through organisational structures, processes and partnerships. University leaders and managers are encouraged to consider the following points:
¶ 2 Leave a comment on paragraph 2 0 – Build equal partnerships between institutions involved in the BM and VE to ensure equal engagement among the partners and equal commitment among participating students. European University Alliances are an ideal context in which to ensure this type of equality, since they already foresee joint mobility initiatives. Adding BM and VE to strengthen those programmes would thus be beneficial and relatively easy to achieve. University Alliances can also help ensure the sustainability of BM and VE activities.
¶ 3 Leave a comment on paragraph 3 0 – BM and VE can be incorporated into all subject areas, enhancing quality and innovation, so encourage adoption across the curriculum;
¶ 4 Leave a comment on paragraph 4 0 – Ensure that BM and VE projects are designed with an eye to those international learning opportunities that have a high learning potential in preparing graduates to meet the challenges of a globalised world;
¶ 5 Leave a comment on paragraph 5 2 – Develop competence(s) of teaching and administrative staff through regular training courses and Professional Development initiatives. Designing and developing BM and VE require a set of competences including those related to pedagogical design, to the management of learning processes, to the integration of BM and VE into syllabi and curricula.
¶ 6 Leave a comment on paragraph 6 1 – Implement a mentor scheme within the institution between staff new to BM and VE and experienced VE-practitioners in order to exchange ideas and knowledge, and ensure the quality of new BM and VE projects.
