Developed in recognition of the need to function in a highly digitised culture, this assessment focuses on the affordances of social media platforms (specifically Pinterest and Padlet) as pedagogic tools. In groups of 2-3 students review an allocated weekly reading and present their findings to their peers in dedicated tutorial/class time.

Informed by a sociomaterial approach to teaching and learning, this technique uses an artifact as a point of inspiration for a short written work (in the case of WRIT7050, this takes the form of a creative fictional short story). Students select (or could be assigned) an object at random, and use this as a stimulus from which to craft a 500 word written piece that engages with an element or theme from the course content; or helps to develop a professional skill (e.g.

There were three components to this groupwork assessment.

Each student team chooses a real world brand of interest to them to do a Brand Strategy Audit. They apply our branding model and methods to this brand. The core model is the customer-based brand equity model, and students measure and analyse the customer-based brand equity of their chosen brand. They conduct a focus group to identify consumers’ key beliefs and feelings about this brand. They measure the level of the identified brand attributes with a bigger sample size by survey research. Strengths and weaknesses of the brand are identified.

Designed as a sequential case-based online and in-class approach, students are able to scaffold their clinical skills and reasoning through developing and implementing case based assessment and management strategies of simple and complex patients to prepare for their end of semester practical examinations. Students are assigned 6 authentic patient cases within Week 8 of the semester of which will be similar to the cases that students are assigned in their end of semester practical examination.
