In May 2012, the University of Bath hosted a project event entitled Share, Improve, Develop: An interactive workshop to explore student involvement in STEM Communication Activities. Delegates from across the country attended to:
The overarching purpose of the workshop was to compare and share good practice in student involvement and to enable participants to directly consider the implications and opportunities for enhancing student involvement in delivering STEM communication activities within their own institutions.

The Guide is an excellent summary with tips and examples and was very well presented. The activities shown were relevant and enjoyable.
Really useful workshop and great to have info in booklets to take back to colleagues. The atmosphere was friendly and there was plenty of time for all my questions.
Quite a broad remit, a lot of information was widely applicable. Useful case studies. Relatively informal so was comfortable and enjoyable (especially on a Friday!). Good Practice Guide looks great!
Lots of concrete ideas to take back! I enjoyed speaking to people with relevant experience and advice.
It was good that examples were pulled out examples from Good Practice Guide - I think I'm now more likely to read & refer to it.
It was great to meet a range of people in different roles.
