Enhancing Students Participation in Quality Assurance in Armenian HE
Date du début: 1 déc. 2013,

The ESPAQ project tackles one of the core challenges of Armenian higher education related to the quality of its provision and outcomes, through engaging the students into processes of quality assurance (QA) and enhancement of their learning experience. With the help of project consortium, we will explore the motivation and barriers for Armenian students to partake in QA on various levels. Project aims to improve the conditions for engagement through raising awareness on the importance of students' say within the academic community providing capacity building support and by suggesting relevant changes in the legislation/HEI regulation With the training, the students exchange and handbook on students participation in QA, ESPAQ will help to build student representatives capacity to engage with QA processes on various levels, including governance of QA authority, participating in external QA reviews, campaigning to encourage general students' population to have their say on designing and delivering curricula, quality of services etc. In addition, ESPAQ will contribute to strengthening students’ participation in QA in the Neighboring region as a whole, since the cultural barriers are quite similar and positive breakthrough in one country can show an example to the restThe project will build on the experience of ESU in empowering students and student representatives in the new democracy countries, helping them to establish as an independent partner towards the governmental institutions. Expertise from Sparqs will help to develop a fit-for-purpose training scheme for students' experts. Involvement of HEIs from the EU countries as well as the number of home institutions will send a clear signal to the academic community about the benefits of students' engagement in quality processes. Partnership with the QA authority and the Ministry of Education and Science will ensure that outcomes of the project will be accessible to the decision-makers and will influence their agenda
