to expectations of educational experience and core subjects.\u202fFor example, how can you support students that may have less of a foundational knowledge in a topic, whilst challenging those with a good understanding of the topic?<\/p>\n<p>A simple way to achieve this, would be to provide links to additional resources for students that require help with the fundamentals. YouTube is often a good place for these types of resources. Then in class, you can task students with debating a topic that requires them to consider the fundamentals, whilst allowing more knowledgeable students to broaden those discussions.<\/p>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div> \n\n    \n<p>As with all parts of the curriculum, constructively aligning the tasks you plan in a module to what we want students to do in their assessments (and beyond, as graduates) puts students on the road to success. However, It is easy to fall into the trap of focusing solely on content and the materials we will present to students.<\/p>\n \n\n                        <div class=\"alert alert-success with-icon \">        \n                            <div class=\"alert-icon\">\n                    <svg class=\"icon\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 30 30\"><title>Globe<\/title><path d=\"M15,2a15,15,0,1,1,0,30A15,15,0,0,1,0,17,15,15,0,0,1,15,2ZM10.34,7.44L10,8a5.88,5.88,0,0,0-.31.63C9.53,9.06,9.31,9.53,9.16,10H14V4.16a2.78,2.78,0,0,0-.66.25,5,5,0,0,0-.69.41,6.52,6.52,0,0,0-1.22,1.09,10.24,10.24,0,0,0-1.09,1.53h0ZM16,10h4.84c-0.09-.22-0.16-0.47-0.25-0.69A12.87,12.87,0,0,0,20,8a5.49,5.49,0,0,1-.34-0.56,10.13,10.13,0,0,0-1.09-1.53,6.55,6.55,0,0,0-1.22-1.09,7.68,7.68,0,0,0-.66-0.41A3.67,3.67,0,0,0,16,4.16V10h0ZM5.81,7.81q-0.52.52-.94,1C4.59,9.22,4.28,9.63,4,10H7A15.68,15.68,0,0,1,8.09,7.44,11.33,11.33,0,0,1,9.41,5.28,11.54,11.54,0,0,0,7.5,6.38,10.52,10.52,0,0,0,5.81,7.81ZM23,10h3c-0.25-.37-0.56-0.78-0.84-1.16a13.7,13.7,0,0,0-.94-1A10.58,10.58,0,0,0,22.5,6.38a11.51,11.51,0,0,0-1.91-1.09,13.28,13.28,0,0,1,1.34,2.16A19,19,0,0,1,23,10h0ZM6.5,12H3a9,9,0,0,0-.62,2A10.61,10.61,0,0,0,2,16H6a14.66,14.66,0,0,1,.16-2.06c0.09-.66.19-1.31,0.31-1.94h0ZM14,12H8.56c-0.16.63-.25,1.31-0.34,2A10.67,10.67,0,0,0,8,16h6V12h0Zm2,0v4h6a14.19,14.19,0,0,0-.16-2c-0.12-.66-0.22-1.34-0.37-2H16Zm8,4h4a13.75,13.75,0,0,0-.31-2A11.21,11.21,0,0,0,27,12H23.5c0.13,0.63.22,1.28,0.31,1.94A14.51,14.51,0,0,1,24,16h0ZM3,22H6.5c-0.12-.62-0.22-1.28-0.31-1.94A14.51,14.51,0,0,1,6,18H2a10.6,10.6,0,0,0,.34,2A9,9,0,0,0,3,22H3Zm11-4H8a10.67,10.67,0,0,0,.19,2c0.09,0.66.19,1.34,0.34,2H14V18h0Zm2,4h5.44c0.16-.62.25-1.31,0.38-2A14.06,14.06,0,0,0,22,18H16v4Zm7.5,0H27a11.21,11.21,0,0,0,.66-2A13.9,13.9,0,0,0,28,18H24a14.66,14.66,0,0,1-.16,2.06c-0.09.66-.19,1.31-0.31,1.94h0ZM7,24H4c0.25,0.38.56,0.78,0.84,1.13a9.9,9.9,0,0,0,.94,1.06A10.58,10.58,0,0,0,7.5,27.63a11.51,11.51,0,0,0,1.91,1.09,11.33,11.33,0,0,1-1.31-2.16A15.79,15.79,0,0,1,7,24H7Zm2.12,0,0.28,0.69A7,7,0,0,0,10,26c0.09,0.22.22,0.41,0.31,0.59a9.78,9.78,0,0,0,1.09,1.5,6.78,6.78,0,0,0,1.22,1.13,3,3,0,0,0,.69.38,2,2,0,0,0,.66.28V24H9.16Zm10.5,2.56c0.09-.19.22-0.37,0.34-0.59s0.22-.41.31-0.62c0.19-.44.38-0.87,0.53-1.34H16v5.84a2.45,2.45,0,0,0,.69-0.28,3.51,3.51,0,0,0,.66-0.37,6.78,6.78,0,0,0,1.22-1.12,9.78,9.78,0,0,0,1.09-1.5h0Zm4.53-.37a10,10,0,0,0,.94-1.06c0.28-.34.59-0.75,0.84-1.12H23a19.07,19.07,0,0,1-1,2.56,13.28,13.28,0,0,1-1.34,2.16,11.54,11.54,0,0,0,1.91-1.09,10.52,10.52,0,0,0,1.69-1.44h0Z\" transform=\"translate(0 -2)\"><\/path><\/svg>                <\/div>\n            \n            <div class=\"alert-body\">            \n                <h3>Activity<\/h3>                <p>To start building your module, we need to think of the hierarchy of knowledge and skills that you want your students to develop.

Which pieces are \u2018threshold concepts\u2019 that the rest of the understanding for the module hinges upon?<\/li>\n<li>Which skills are required for your assignment and how will students practice\u00a0and receive feedback on them? Example: presentations will likely require storytelling skills, data handling skills and verbal communication skills.<\/li>\n<li>Consider which skills will be explicitly assessed (in the mark scheme) and why (are they crucial to the assessment, to disciplinary expectations, to employability)?<\/li>\n<li>How might you weave in tasks for students to better understand the assignment and their learning, especially the skills explored in point 3?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n            <\/div>\n        <\/div> \n\n    \n<p>Once you have determined the skills students will need to succeed in your assessments, you can begin thinking about the types of learning activities they should be doing in your module.

Robert Farmer (2019) has employed a novel approach to inspire us and our students when faced with designing and understanding the lived experience of our modules, based on the literary structure of a \u2018hero\u2019s journey\u2019. You may find that this helps you to conceptualise and imagine the journey of your students, with enemies (barriers to learning), battles to learn from (formative assessments) and the Wise Old Guides (you, your module team and colleagues from Professional Services!).<\/p>\n<p>Use the following journey to imagine how your module journey could be structured in order to achieve your module learning outcomes. You could use your Programme Line Plan to see what stage students might be at across the programme by entering journey numbers in the cells.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Hero&#8217;s Journey for Module Design<\/strong><\/p>\n<figure id=\"post-1181 media-1181\" class=\"image align-none\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/sites.cardiff.ac.uk\/education-development-toolkit\/files\/2023\/08\/Hero.png\" alt=\"A fairytale map shows fairies, wizards and dragons superimposed in front of an oil-painted mountain. The title of the Infographic is The Hero's Journey for Module Design - An idea by Robert Farmer 2019. The process to inspire module design is as follows: Title - The Hero's Journey For Module Design A Cardiff University reimagining of the work of Robert Farmer (2019) The Module Begins\u2026 1) THE HERO IS INTRODUCED IN THE ORDINARY WORLD. Establish the foundations on which learning can be built. Design opportunities for getting to know each other in a safe and supportive learning environment. 2) The Call to adventure. Invite students to study &amp; sell the module. Seek commitments from students and let them know what to expect. Help them to understand the aims and structure of the module. Discuss the module assessments. 3) The HERO IS RELUCTANT AT FIRST. Listen to students' hopes and fears about the module. Encourage them to ask questions and explore their prior knowledge and skills. 4) The HERO meets the wise old guide(s) . Motivate students by reassuring and encouraging that they can achieve. Consider the use of near-peer (previous cohort) presence or outcomes. 5) The hero crosses the first threshold. Begin the teaching and learning in earnest. 6) The hero meets tests, enemies, and helpers . Very quickly, introduce formative tasks. Tests, quizzes, challenges and opportunities for student-resource, student-student and student-teacher support. Encourage students to consider what they are finding most enjoyable and most challenging. 7) Approaching the innermost cave. Begin preparation for your mid-module formative activity. 8) The hero endures the supreme ordeal. Guide students to complete the formative assessment. Plan for them to receive timely feedforward that will help them to tackle summative assessments. 9) The hero seizes the sword . Design tasks that see the student taking up and using their feedforward in order to improve. For instance, weave in personalised learning routes, re-drafting opportunities or practice. 10) The road back. Design activities that see students beginning to prepare for their summative assessment. Scaffold for student autonomy, study skills and independent use of the lessons learnt so far. 11) Resurrection. Students complete their summative assessment and begin to return to 'normal' student life as they await their feedback. 12) The hero returns with the elixir. Give students feedback on their summative assessment, and the feedforward to take onto the next module(s) and their lifelong learning. Make it portable and transferrable, and wish them well!\" \/><\/figure>\n<div class=\"accordion accordion-accessible\"><div class=\"accordion-section\">\n        <h2 class=\"accordion-section-header-title collapsed\" data-toggle=\"collapse\" href=\"#content-learning-design-heros-journey-1\"\n        aria-expanded=\"false\"><svg class=\"icon icon-chevron-right\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 19.75 32\">\n    <title>Chevron right<\/title>\n    <path d=\"M6.13,28.28L18.41,16,6.13,3.72,9.84,0l16,16-16,16Z\" transform=\"translate(-6.13 0)\"><\/path>\n<\/svg> Hero's Journey text version<\/h2> <div class=\"accordion-section-body collapse \" id=\"content-learning-design-heros-journey-1\"><h3>The Hero's Journey For Module Design<\/h3>\n<p>A Cardiff University reimagining of the work of Robert Farmer (2019)<\/p>\n<p>The Module Begins\u2026<\/p>\n<p><strong>1) THE HERO IS INTRODUCED IN THE ORDINARY WORLD<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Establish the foundations on which learning can be built.

As a general rule, students should spend 100 hours learning per 10 credits. It is likely that this will be a combination of:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Taught hours;<\/li>\n<li>Collaborative study hours<\/li>\n<li>Guided study hours (often asynchronous and online)<\/li>\n<li>Independent study and assessment preparation<\/li>\n<li>Assessment preparation\u00a0 (likely to take about 25% of a student\u2019s learning time)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You can use your module map to communicate these expectations with your students.<\/p>\n<p>When designing tasks across these modes, give the task a go where possible so you can get a sense of how long the activity takes, bearing in mind that understanding the task and working with unfamiliar ideas and navigations will mean most students work significantly more slowly than you! Even if you do not have time to complete the task, it is worth bearing in mind that staff and students alike tend to underestimate how long a task will take us (Kahneman &amp; Tversky, 1979).<\/p>\n<p>You can give indicative times with your tasks to help students to plan their time. You could also ask your students to tell you how long the activity took them so you can fine-tune for future cohorts. It is important for staff and student wellbeing, as well as inclusion, that the activities you offer are time-bound and reasonable. Chatting to other staff, or exploring your programme\u2019s line plan, might help you see where pinch points are for assessment so that a student\u2019s overall workload expectation can be re-organised for best student wellbeing, engagement and outcomes.<\/p>\n \n\n                        <div class=\"alert alert-info with-icon \">        \n                            <div

To help, provide them with examples of past work that has achieved a range of grades and encourage students to analyse the differences between them so they can adapt their own assessment methods. A good time to do this, is after a formative assessment when students are most interested in what they can do to improve.<\/p>\n<p>To determine how assessment-savvy your module is, there are many small-scale interventions that can be undertaken through use of the EAT Framework. The Framework is full of guiding steps for producing new modules and provides an evaluative mapping tool which can help us to consider what steps will have the most impact for our students\u2019 understanding and engagement of assessment.<\/p>\n<p>It is worth thinking about the potential for any assessment \u2018nightmares\u2019 in advance of running the assessment. <a href=\"https:\/\/lta.hw.ac.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/23_AFL_Key-assessment-challenges-and-how-to-deal-with-them.pdf\">Sambell gives a list of assessment nightmares and approaches to avoiding them.<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Planning for Marking<\/h3>\n<p>Whilst it might seem counterintuitive to think of how you will mark an assignment before you think about how you might go about teaching it, it is crucial that you do this in order to be able to explain to students how they can achieve.<\/p>\n<p><span data-teams=\"true\">Phil Race&#8217;s article titled &#8216;<a href=\"https:\/\/phil-race.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/Using_feedback.pdf\">Using Feedback to Help Students to Learn<\/a>&#8216; provides a group activity for evaluating different ways of marking by effectiveness and efficiency.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>It is possible to co-create a marking approach with students: for instance, would a lighter marking approach on summative assessments suffice if plenty of formative feedback was given on a formal formative assignment?<\/p>\n<h3>Planning for Formative Assessment(s)<\/h3>\n<p>To help prepare students for the summative assessment, each module should include a formative assessment that either looks like the summative assessment or is part of it (patchwork approach). However, for this to be effective, students need to receive their feedback in good time to learn from it before their summative assessment.<\/p>\n<h3>Planning for Formative Feedback<\/h3>\n<p>Formative feedback can be given throughout a module and is not just a tool for use after an assessment task. Purposefully plan interactions where students are doing and giving or receiving feedback, across formalities and modes. Try not to underestimate the power of verbal feedback during a learning activity. As students are working, walk around and give verbal feedback:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Stretch and challenge questions e.g. \u201cWhy do you think that?\u201d or \u201cCan you give an example of how that would work in the field?\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Prompting analysis with other students\/groups e.g. \u201cgo and chat with the group over there, their discussion is taking a different view to yours.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Reinforce the importance of evidence e.g. \u201cI\u2019ve not heard that before, what are your sources (non-academic sources allowed as a starting point)?\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Reminders of typical errors in assessment or knowledge e.g. \u201cCareful not to fall into the trap of \u2018x\u2019.It\u2019s a common mistake that you don\u2019t want to make in the assessment.\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Then take the next step and plan in reflective and discursive activities around\u202f<a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.kcl.ac.uk\/aflkings\/students-directing-their-own-learning\/helping-students-engage-with-feedback\/\">how this feedback can be used for improvement<\/a>. Consider how students capture and use this feedback: for instance, will students make changes to plans or keep a reflective log? Encourage students to make explicit what they are learning and where they will use it.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3>\ud83c\udfafActivity<\/h3>\n<ol>\n<li>Look at the following sources of feedback.
