Dear All

We have used the appeal system for the four years we have been using TBL with between 250 and 550 students spread across 7 large groups.  This year I have 600 students and a total of 93 teams across 7 groups!

We have had around 25-30 appeals in all the time we have used TBL and only upheld a total of about four!  We use item analysis for checking quality of test questions.

This year I am not going to use the appeal process because of the amount of work it causes the academic team with little perceived benefit to the students!  Before I commit finally to this decision I'd like to know whether there is any strong reason the process should be retained!

Best wishes

Jenny
