Permissions

Your teacher may give you 'permission' (ie editing rights) to create questions in a quiz, for instance (for a particular activity not the whole course).

For instance, imagine you are discussing ethics.

Each student in your course was asked to prepare a multiple choice question (and 3 answers) such as:

"Euthanasia is lawful for animals, but not for humans."

A. This is the way it should stay
B. Governments should start to discuss this publicly
C. This is obviously the most humane way for some people to die."

This example is shown in the activity called 'Permissions: an example'.

Peer and self assessment

An example of a workshop activity has been set up in this topic. It is an activity which gives you the option to evaluate another student's work (but can also be used for you to self-assess your work, or to work on mock exam questions)

The purpose of this exercise is to get you to be more critical (in a constructive and positive fashion) with your work.
