I asked @QMUniversity grad students to draw ‘learning’ in our session on learning outcomes today. Their responses informed our discussion on the importance of designing flexible assessment tasks that allow for personal style and interest. 😊
Today we launched our @QMU_LEAD new talk series #INSIGHTS. We will be talking with colleagues from @QMUniversity Campus, QMU Online and QMU Partners alongside @QMUSU students and speakers from across the HE sector. To submit a proposal contact [email protected]
