12. @DrJPritchard School of Biosciences ‘It has been brought to my attention that some lecturers who are participating in reverse lecturing- which is a brilliant technique that more lecturers should adopt- are setting their students the task of writing an exam question which they will then get the chance to vote on and will appear in the exam paper. I think this is an excellent idea however as there is only one module doing this it gives that module a massive advantage over others as students will know one of their exam questions before the exam. This approach should either be implemented into every module or scrapped completely’

22. Good stuff @DrJPritchard School of Biosciences
23. Bad stuff @DrJPritchard School of Biosciences

25. No reduction in Performance @DrJPritchard School of Biosciences
26. @DrJPritchard School of Biosciences Students felt better prepared
27. @DrJPritchard School of Biosciences Students felt deeper level skills were tested
28. @DrJPritchard School of Biosciences Students ambivalent about the use of these skills
29. @DrJPritchard School of Biosciences Student perception? Still protesting
30. @DrJPritchard School of Biosciences In my module "Adaptation to Changing Environments", Dr Pritchard is doing "flipped" sessions, concentrating on formative tasks given throughout the week but no proper lectures. I feel I am not learning nearly as much from this as a result … The tasks to complete before each lecture are extremely time- consuming and simply an extra burden within an already very busy year. Independent study should be our choice as students and it should not be forced on us.
