Josh Davies has won a postgraduate SEM Faculty Award at the Warwick Award for Teaching Excellence (WATE) 2023.

Josh said: “Much of my teaching is based in the teaching laboratories, where I have had the pleasure of teaching Year 1-3 UG students and several PGT courses. I have designed and delivered a series of workshops for the third-year Polymer and Colloid Science module and created a series of posters to communicate theory, practical skills, and assessment for use in UG labs. My teaching focuses on an enquiry-based approach to learning and creating an immersive style of delivery founded on clear communication of expectations, fostering a sense of the students being co-creators in their learning, which continuously receives positive feedback from students and teaching observations.”

Prof. dr. ir. Stefan Bon says: “This is fantastic. It is great to see that Josh’s enthusiasm for teaching has been recognised and awarded by the Faculty of Science, Engineering and Medicine. I am very happy that the team at BonLab helps out and contributes to the teaching and training of students at Warwick University, especially in polymer and colloid science and engineering. Josh did an excellent job this academic year.”
