See attached report. Business Studies Students proved to be very difficult to track. Internet site already available for the course including exam questions and worked examples. Students needed some social grounding to set the groups up - many of them do not share the same modules and do not meet outside of this module. Thus it is di fficult for students to support each other.
Students become responsible for getting information.
Should be able to form student groups that do not need much physical contact. Students find groupwork difficult because they do not know each other, do not share the same course, or live near one another. Excellent way of transmitting visual documents spreadsheets provide a visual way of presenting calculations using graphs. Course management it will be possible to put lecture OHTs and questions with worked examples into a faxback service. Planning to hold feedback sessions with the students in semester 2.
