SOAR is an acronym for Strengths, Opportunities, Aspirations and Results and forms part of the CRe8 framework. It provides a structure to help students make connections either between the individual elements of the curriculum or between the curriculum and the world beyond the University. You can find a summary of the SOAR process on page 2 of Cre8.
Further information on the background to SOAR is available on the CETL legacy site and on the CRe8 Wiki.
