Theme | Detail |
---|---|
Time | Time commitment was far above the specified commitment. Supervisors get no ‘programmed activity’ time for this work. Certain projects require greater time commitment. |
Reward and recognition | There was no recognition for time commitment. The opportunity to present posters/publish was seen as rewards. There was learning opportunity for faculty. |
Preparation | Limited understanding of the module aims, poor engagement with training. Resources on KEATs (VLE) are hard to access and too time consuming. |
Assessment | Marking standards and boundaries were unclear. There was unease about subjectivity of marks. There was no ability to compare. It was time consuming and stressful. |
Value | Undergraduate projects are valuable to the department and wider trust. |
KEATs (VLE) = King's E-learning and Teaching Service Virtual Learning Environment.
