Miss Maria Milner

I lead on second and third year modules on the BSc Child Nursing programme.  Within these modules, as well as preparing asynchronous learning materials on CANVAS, I utilise flipped classrooms, padlet discussion boards and student editable CANVAS pages to allow for asynchronous engagement between students and the module teams in alignment with the module assignment criteria.

I am responsible for the MEP and continuous improvement of the Leadership in Children's Nursing module.

I support masters students, supervising them for their assignments planning research proposals.
