Nice sunny morning. Trish 1 5:01 PM Hi from Sheffield Uni in the UK Tim Hunt 5:01 PM Hello, Tim From the Open University, UK Cate 5:01 PM Hello from UniSA South Australia Narelle Patton 5:01 PM Hello from Charles sturt Uni Albury - Joy Reid joined the Main Room. ( 5:02 PM ) - Theresa Winchester-Seeto 5:01 PM Hi Narelle - chris 1 joined the Main Room. ( 5:02 PM ) - Narelle Patton 5:02 PM Hi Theresa Mathew Hillier 5:02 PM Please check your audio via the top menu:Tools > Audio > Audio setup wizard. Mathew Hillier 5:04 PM yes we can hear! :-) 5:04 PM Greetings! If you have just joined us but cannot hear...Please check your audio via the top menu:Tools > Audio > Audio setup wizard. 5:04 PM Mathew Hillier 5:05 PM wonderful :-) Mathew Hillier 5:07 PM Greetings! If you have just joined us but cannot hear the audio...Please check your audio via the top menu:Tools > Audio > Audio setup wizard. Tim Hunt 5:07 PM Trivial question, but when you say 'course', do you mean 'module' or 'degree'? Thanks 5:07 PM Mathew Hillier 5:09 PM Greetings! If you have just joined us but cannot hear...Please check your audio via the top menu:Tools > Audio > Audio setup wizard. we 'wish' ;-) 5:10 PM lol 5:10 PM Theresa Winchester-Seeto 5:11 PM Not so much Mathew Hillier 5:11 PM i have found it tends to be better in single discipline (degree) schools (departments) Ellen McIntyre 5:12 PM communication Theresa Winchester-Seeto 5:12 PM Small department Liz A 5:12 PM a good course leader Trish 1 5:12 PM accreditation Jill Fresen 5:12 PM formative and summative assessment Mathew Hillier 5:12 PM when snr mgmt have merged departmenrs in large groups then the focus of a program team tends to go aways. Sally Jordan 5:12 PM the one common thing is the students... Tim Hunt 5:12 PM The students Larisa Grice University of London 5:12 PM Certificate at the end of a programme Matt 5:12 PM curriculum mapping DebbiWeaver #2 5:12 PM course planning - usually when reaccreditation is due LOL Liberty 5:12 PM High level outcomes Peter 5:12 PM student persistance Colleen Ortega UofA 5:12 PM Program learning outcomes and constructive alignment Jill Grimshaw 5:12 PM a shared objective Theresa Winchester-Seeto 5:12 PM program reviews Sara Hammer 5:12 PM Ideally outcomes but probably disciplinarity - we'd like more communication but doesn't happen often. Narelle Patton 5:12 PM the students moving through the program with a purpose Stephen S 5:12 PM capstone module ClaireA #2 5:12 PM Often its the professional accreditation! Jane 5:13 PM Programme outcome Mathew Hillier 5:13 PM foscused groups / programs tend to work more as a team overall. larger programs with many electives and streams much less so chris 1 5:13 PM I think it really varies from case to case. A lot of the things mentioned so far are valid, but not universal. Jane 5:13 PM Programme leads and the vale Mathew Hillier 5:13 PM agree- it is a complex system so case by case :-) Sally Jordan 5:14 PM I agree with Mathew that it is easier in small depts, do others find there is a tension between aligned assessment and academic ownership of their modules Laurine 5:15 PM Sally, yes Jane 5:15 PM It's very different with cohorts of say 350 a year Mathew Hillier 5:16 PM co-ordination 'overheads' start to impact coherence of the team overall. Sally Jordan 5:16 PM @Mathew Yup! Sara Hammer 5:16 PM Yes - lack of clarity around role also exacerbates. A few 5:17 PM Jill Grimshaw 5:17 PM a Mathew Hillier 5:17 PM use the "a' button under your name at the top to choose a, b c or d Jane 5:17 PM C Sally Jordan 5:17 PM True within module but not within programme as a whole Carlos Matos 2 5:17 PM C Paul 5:17 PM d Theresa Winchester-Seeto 5:17 PM C Trish 1 5:17 PM c Chad Gladovic 5:17 PM a Jill Fresen 5:17 PM d Mathew Hillier 5:17 PM they should but it probably doesnt happen as much as it should! Laurine 5:17 PM very unit-dependent Deb Murdoch 5:17 PM c Dana 5:18 PM b Sally Jordan 5:18 PM (trust it to be me who can't manage to use the MCQ options :-)) Tim Hunt 5:18 PM LOL Mathew Hillier 5:18 PM ;-) Jane 5:19 PM The option button does not work on my iPad Mathew Hillier 5:21 PM "High activity" is so long??? more like the night before ;-) Sally Jordan 5:21 PM :-) Laurine 5:23 PM we've all had students miss classes due to a submission/test for another module Sara Hammer 5:24 PM Bye bye. Really interesting but got to go. Mathew Hillier 5:24 PM sara - catch the recording ! Mathew Hillier 5:25 PM Greetings! If you have just joined us but cannot hear...Please check your audio via the top menu:Tools > Audio > Audio setup wizard. Paul McLaughlin 5:25 PM Prehaps by having a high activity phase during an anxiety phase of another reduces the anxiety as they haven't time to worry! Laurine 5:25 PM :) Colleen Ortega UofA 5:26 PM I wonder what this mapping would look like for a non-traditional student - part time for example Sheona (QUT) 5:26 PM Actually GREAT Tim Hunt 5:26 PM Being able to deal with the powers that be dumping lots of different urgent work on you all at the same time is an important employability skill ;-) Jill Fresen 5:27 PM reflective journals Paul McLaughlin 5:27 PM Portfolios Mathew Hillier 5:27 PM blogs,... observation... Jane 5:27 PM Through reflection more difficult in say maths chris 1 5:27 PM I don't know nick mcguigan 5:27 PM asking students to bring their own context into the assessment through its design Jill Grimshaw 5:27 PM ensure assignment refers to their own context Chad Gladovic 5:27 PM Reflective journal Carlos Matos 2 5:27 PM Reflective journals, presentations Narelle Patton 5:27 PM student presentations Tim Hunt 5:27 PM I am struggling with the word 'capture' Deb Murdoch 5:27 PM develop learning outcomes that incorporate it as well as the discipline knowledge and skills Theresa Winchester-Seeto 5:27 PM Non-traditional assessment approaches - difficult to do in essays and exams Liz A 5:27 PM learning outcomes which are not linked to content e.g. presentation skills Ellen McIntyre 5:27 PM designing across a program Trish 1 5:28 PM Many soft skills still part of the accreditation .. so often still LOs. Narelle Patton 5:28 PM team work/ group assessment Deb Murdoch 5:28 PM write good rationales for the task, map the skills across the course ClaireA #2 5:28 PM Very challenging for a lot of academics, who often see 'content' as king, and the 'means' (skills) as invisible Peter 1 5:28 PM improved use of spellcheckers in Word across assignments chris 1 5:29 PM I learned a lot from those answers! How do you mark (or do you mark?) something like a reflective journal? ClaireA #2 5:29 PM and chat rooms! chris 1 5:29 PM Thank you :) Jane 5:29 PM With clear assessment criteria Jill Grimshaw 5:29 PM difficult! Larisa Grice University of London 5:29 PM I am so sorry, I have to leave the webinar. A urgent call from my line manager. Theresa Winchester-Seeto 5:29 PM Should you mark a reflective journal? Deb Murdoch 5:30 PM why not, it's the skill of reflection you are marking Theresa Winchester-Seeto 5:31 PM Depends on how it is done Deb, often using more distilled reflections can help students more. Sally Jordan 5:31 PM IMHO it depends on HOW you mark it, so yes OK if you are sure it's the reflection you're marking Theresa Winchester-Seeto 5:32 PM Sally, this is certainly true - I prefer to see some metacognition and allow students to experiment in their raw reflections in their journal Deb Murdoch 5:33 PM how do you manage if the subject/unit runs in multiple courses? Paul 5:34 PM Or indeed, options, so what students experience and the programme varies. Tim Hunt 5:35 PM Y chris 1 5:35 PM It's refreshing slowly, but yes Bonnie 5:38 PM is it possible to add team versus individual Carlos Matos 2 5:38 PM Can you have 2 assignments (or modes) for the same module in the same week? DebbiWeaver #2 5:39 PM Very cool! Dana 5:39 PM agreed, very cool! Liberty 5:39 PM Awesome! Colleen Ortega UofA 5:39 PM :) Theresa Winchester-Seeto 5:39 PM Lots of uses come to mind Jane 5:40 PM Why exams in assessment type Sorry why 2 exams in types 5:40 PM Peter 1 5:40 PM could be mid-semester exams Julie Crough 5:41 PM Fantastic - this is brilliant! I've been looking for a "bubble" tool to represent assessment weighting. DebbiWeaver #2 5:41 PM What do the coloured horizontal lines represent? Dearne Tronc 5:42 PM can weighting numbers be added? Mathew Hillier 5:42 PM the size of the circile represents the weight.(% of the module) Theresa Winchester-Seeto 5:42 PM Might have missed this - where can we access this tool? - nick mcguigan left the Main Room. ( 5:43 PM ) - Colleen Ortega UofA 5:44 PM https://sites.google.com/site/mapmyprogramme/resources ClaireA #2 5:44 PM is there a way of differentiating cire modules? - Kogi 2 joined the Main Room. ( 5:45 PM ) - ClaireA #2 5:44 PM *core modules Theresa Winchester-Seeto 5:45 PM Thanks Colleen Jill Grimshaw 5:45 PM really great thank you. have to go assess people now! DebbiWeaver #2 5:46 PM How generous of you to make this available! ClaireA #2 5:46 PM Do students have access? Jane 5:46 PM Excellent Deb Murdoch 5:47 PM if the subject runs in multiple courses can you easily copy all the information to another map without having to repeat the whole process? Trish 1 5:47 PM Any thoughts on mapping against learning outcomes .. module level to programme level? Trish 1 5:48 PM What about an assessment that spans modules? ClaireA #2 5:48 PM can you highlight core modules? chris 1 5:49 PM If we could come back to my question of how to mark (and if to mark?) reflective journals at some point, that would be great. I know it's a bit off topic so if you want to focus on questions more directly related to the material, that's fine :) Rachel 1 5:49 PM For a student view, what about showing when an assessment task starts - to help students manage multiple deadlines (and not leave everything to the end) Liz A 5:49 PM can you add dates assessment feedback is received? Deb Murdoch 5:49 PM if you had a master list of subjects that you could link from you could view almost any combination of subjects for a course with many variations. DebbiWeaver #2 5:50 PM Thanks so much - got to leave:) ClaireA #2 5:50 PM If you manage to map LOs onto this as well - please let us know!!! - currently struggling with this - DebbiWeaver #2 left the Main Room. ( 5:51 PM ) - Tim Hunt 5:51 PM I am wondering how much the tool is important as a tool, and how much of the value is just as a way to start conversations between colleagues. Mathew Hillier 5:51 PM a related / similar tool from Curtin uni does the link to graduate outcomes and modules. https://www.mycoursemap.net.au/ i think the two tools would be complement each other 5:51 PM Tim Hunt 5:52 PM I guess it really sets out the information that needs to be discussed. Deb Murdoch 5:53 PM what sort of time frame before a session do you encourage this sort of planning to happen? - Sally Jordan left the Main Room. ( 5:53 PM ) -Mathew Hillier 5:53 PM gannt chart style...? gantt* 5:53 PM Colleen Ortega UofA 5:53 PM thank you! have to go now, can't wait to use the tool :-) Mathew Hillier 5:53 PM please fill the feedback survey before you go! http://ta.vu/feedback 5:54 PM many thanks! 5:54 PM Theresa Winchester-Seeto 5:54 PM This was great, thanks so much. Some great food for thought Deb Murdoch 5:55 PM I'm very interested in mapping LO and CLO Sheona (QUT) 5:55 PM Thanks ! GREAT Cassandra Colvin 2 5:55 PM Thank you Mark for sharing this - inspiring and thought provoking Trish 1 5:55 PM What is the URL for mapmyprogramme? Deb Murdoch 5:55 PM would love to discuss more. Sheona (QUT) 5:55 PM Yese to the mapping Dearne Tronc 5:55 PM Thank you Gregg Maynard 5:55 PM thanks - useful tool Sheona (QUT) 5:55 PM And GREAT was great Narelle Patton 5:55 PM Thank you Liberty 5:55 PM Thanks Mark! Ellen McIntyre 5:55 PM Thank you Tim Hunt 5:55 PM Thanks Rachel 1 5:55 PM A colleague once told me about a product - easimap for mapping programmes - based at Loughborough, but I don't lnmpw ,much about it. Stephen S 5:55 PM much appreciated Julie Crough 5:56 PM GREAT tool - thank you Mark & Mathews Tim Hunt 5:56 PM See you next month! Cassandra Colvin 2 5:56 PM you are still on -the recording did not stop - just fyi Cate 5:56 PM thank you all- great presentation Bonnie 5:57 PM Thank you!
