Rethinking Undergraduate Induction Week 2020: High Engagement When Fully Online

Traditional induction weeks have typically been built around face-to-face activities, with a heavy emphasis on formal presentations and social events. 2020 forced induction to be fully online, and in this paper provided an opportunity to re-orientate business management undergraduate induction towards both personal transition and greater academic understanding of higher education. This paper describes the design and implementation of a high-engagement induction week, based on active learning with daily challenges. There is a specific focus on the day 3 activity, based around the theme of responsible management using the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) framework.
