Hi

 

We are introducing TBL for the first time on three modules across our institution – one in marketing, one in occupational therapy and one in international law.  The OT module is run over 6 hours a day for 24 weeks, whereas the other two are being adapted for use within our standard 1 hour lecture and 1 hour seminar per week framework.

 

We are dividing up the assessment ‘cake’ and looking for some suggestions as to how to take effective account of our institutional requirement for a significant element of the assessment to comprise individual work.  So far we have approx. 30% for the iRAT and tRAT elements combined, with the remaining 70% split between the group application element and the accompanying individual report/essay.

 

My first question to the group is … what type of individual assessments do you set that allow for sufficient discrimination between students who are (obviously) working very closely in their teams?

 

My second question is how do you divide up your ‘assessment cake’?

 

Answers and guidance much appreciated. Thank you.

 

Rachel
