本文概述了 QAA（苏格兰）资助的探索第一年课程设计项目的一些发现（Bovill 等人，2008 年）。虽然存在许多以吸引一年级学生的方式设计课程的例子，但已发表的学生积极参与课程设计过程的例子却很少。在当前强调学生参与学习的高等教育背景下（Carini 等人，
2006），本文更普遍地询问学生是否应该积极参与课程设计。
为了回答这个问题，我们探讨了项目结果的几个要素：焦点小组收集的学生观点；工作坊中收集的员工意见；以及学生积极参与课程设计的案例研究。对这些数据进行检查，以了解学生是否应该在第一年和其他级别参与课程设计的辩论。除了这些发现之外，还对相关文献进行了批评，以确定采用为学生积极参与提供机会的课程设计方法的可取性和可行性。
This paper outlines some of the findings from a QAA (Scotland) funded project exploring first year curriculum design (Bovill et al. 2008). Whilst many examples exist of curricula being designed in ways to engage first year students, there are fewer published examples of active student participation in curriculum design processes. In the current higher education context where student engagement in learning is emphasised (Carini et al,
2006), this paper asks more generally whether students should be actively participating in curriculum design.
In order to answer this question, several elements of the project findings are explored: student views gathered in focus groups; staff views collected in workshops; and the case studies where students were actively involved in curriculum design. The data are examined for lessons that inform the debate about whether students should be participating in curriculum design, in first year and at other levels. Alongside these findings, relevant literature is critiqued in order to ascertain the desirability and feasibility of adopting curriculum design approaches that offer opportunities for active student participation.
