The Feeling Failure Project: Resources to support recovery from setbacks and promote effective learning and working
Resources to support quick and effective recovery from setbacks and failures and to help create 'fail-safe' environments that promote effective learning and working.
This collection is based on my qualitative study exploring students' (legal apprentices) experiences of academic failure and is applicable in most learning contexts.
The study and the resources are part of the ongoing Feeling Failure project. Please do contact me (lucindabromfield@bpp.com) for more information about the study, the project or the resources.
Work in progress on the initial study was highly commended in the Stan Marsh Award 2023 and I would like to thank the Association of Law Teachers and BPP University Law School for their support.
