It is a time of life when you have to start making key decisions for yourself, and that is one of the big challenges of going to university. Ultralab (1990-2006) , the leading learning, technology, and research centre at Anglia Polytechnic University in Chelmsford, Essex, will be running the APU Summer School 2006 after a year's break. Ultralab (1990-2006) has previously run Summer School for APU in 2002, 2003, and 2004. John Butcher, Manager, Widening Participation Unit, visited Ultralab (1990-2006) today to talk with Colin Elsey and Matthew Eaves about how the project could run in July 2006. It has been decided to adopt the popular 'Points of View' model for the challenge, adding a more specific twist for the 25 young people undertaking the challenge, relating to university life. The young people who take part in the APU Summer School are 'first-generation', meaning that their parents did not go to university to undertake a degree course. This project enables those young people to experience university life first-hand and decide whether higher education is right for them. An exciting project.
