In part, the number (and length) of RATs depends on the total number of class hours you are dealing with. The principle is that you MUST maintain an emphasis on APPLYING the content. It would be an unusual situation in which you'd want to spend more than 30% of your total class time on RATs.
If you have a module 3 weeks with each week being a different topic, how many RATs do you “normally” provide? Would you give 1 RAT for the module or 1 RAT for each topic?
Thanks,
