ADM-HEA is part of the Higher Education Academy, which was established in 2000 by the Higher Education Funding Councils for England, Northern Ireland, Scotland and Wales to promote high quality learning and teaching in higher education, art, design, media theory and practice, the history of art and design and cultural studies subjects.
We work with people in further and higher education institutions, subject associations and professional bodies, to explore and identify opportunities to develop effective practices in learning and teaching in these subjects.
Our aims
Our aim is to enhance the student learning experience by:
- Creating and supporting a network of people involved in the delivery of higher education in art, design and media subjects
- Facilitating the sharing of knowledge across the network and forging and brokering links with professional bodies and subject associations
- Promoting and sharing good practice in learning and teaching
As a postgraduate it is likely that you occupy the positions of both student and teacher. As the MeCCSA-PGN network aims to ensure peer support in your experience as a student, ADM-HEA is keen to support you in the role of teacher.
How you can get involved
Events
We organise, support and disseminate information about a range of events designed to enhance the student experience in art, design and media subjects, often in collaboration with subject associations and other professional bodies. Activities range from regional workshops to national seminars and conferences. http://www.adm.heacademy.ac.uk/events
Projects
We develop, support and fund collaborative research and development projects and share the outcomes across the network. The Subject Centre provides funding for small projects within colleges and universities whilst contributing to larger scale projects in collaboration with national agencies. http://www.adm.heacademy.ac.uk/projects
Resources
To supplement the research and development projects, we draw on the experience and creativity of colleagues to develop a collection of resource reviews, case studies, and pedagogic research. These resources are shared across the community via our website and through Networks magazine. http://www.adm.heacademy.ac.uk/resources
