In-Module Resit | Prior to relevant Programme Exam Board |
• Feedback individually to students, on an activity or draft prior to summative assessment
• Peer review activities
As the module is clinically based a lot of teaching is delivered at the bedside to small groups, there are consistent opportunities for both group and individual feedback - this is informal. However if based on their performance at these small group sessions, a student is deemed to need extra teaching, this is communicated directly to the student and remediation is arranged. All students present a clinical case to their group of peers and written peer to peer feedback as well as formal feedback form the facilitator are given. Individual requests for feedback are dealt with on a case by case basis and a meeting with the module coordinator can be arranged to discuss if requested. *Due to COVID-19 restrictions, this may be subject to change*
