In-Module Resit | Prior to relevant Programme Exam Board |
• Feedback individually to students, on an activity or draft prior to summative assessment
• Self-assessment activities
Feedback Strategy/Strategies 1. Feedback individually to students, on an activity or draft prior to summative assessment 2. Self-assessment activities How will my Feedback be Delivered? 1. Continuous feedback individually to students in-class on skill development and on the progression of their development through the assigned projects, prior to end of term portfolio submission and formal assessment. 2. Some amount of informal self-assessment, to facilitate students to self-monitor and critically evaluate their own work, through in-class discussions around demonstrations and review of other students’ work when presented in class.
