Additional details
Students will complete two online series. Each online series will have the equivalent of 2000 words of internal assessment (an equivalent of 500 words within each of the four modules of the online series).
These internal assessments for the online series could be:
- A 400-500 word written piece for peer or academic assessment (peer assessment of another student’s submission would come with an expectation of ~100-word feedback or rubric equivalent, approximating 5-10 minutes effort)
- Contribution to online discussion (in written form, e.g. in discussion forum) to the equivalent of 500 words
- Quiz/zes totalling 30 minutes of time (e.g. multiple-choice questions)
- 5-minute oral presentation/video
- some proportional combination of the above.
Assessment will be spaced throughout each module, with most weeks of content containing a small assessment item from those listed above.
Each online series has an associated exam which features a combination of multiple choice and short answer questions, totalling an equivalent of 3000 words.
Students sit the exam associated with a particular online series after successful completion of that series’ internal assessments.
