If you have presentations and other video assessments in your course, there are a few steps to follow to enable students to submit a video recording that you can access,
Including group assessment in your course is beneficial for both students and teachers, providing an opportunity for teachers to help students develop work-ready skills.
The link for LibrarySearch has changed as of 05-07-23.
Both Panopto and Leganto have data analytics features that allow you to check user access.
Teaching observations are an integral part of the teaching and learning improvement cycle - participating gives you an opportunity to help others learn from you as well as a chance to reflect on your own teaching.
Your course textbook (required or recommended) can be made available to students via Leganto by providing a link to a print or e-book version if one is available and/or requesting a copy be placed on short loan.
Using a marking team can reduce total marking time, especially for large courses, enabling the efficient return of student assessment. However, actions need to be taken to ensure success.
The Hai Whakamahuki | Welcome section on your course page is an important section for connecting with tauira, and is one of the standard sections on all course pages.
To help prepare tauira for success in their final exam, we recommend examiners make all requirements explicitly clear to tauira, ideally no later than four (4) weeks before the exam date.
Now that teaching is underway, consider these quick tips for generating teacher presence and student engagement.
Announcements via your Akoraka | Learn course page are an important tool to use to increase student engagement.
Moderation is an important element of academic quality and “All assessment items worth 10% or more of the overall course grade must be moderated before being provided to students” (Assessment Policy).
