Tutor
instructions for group poster project
Read through the “Group Poster Project instructions for students” in your tutorial as an OHT so that they (and you) know what is going on. Also include a copy of each of the forms and the assessment criteria.
In your first tutorial class, start organising the students into groups of 3 to 4 for the group poster project.
You only have 2 weeks to get the groups organised!!!
Type up a list
of the groups from your class and send the lecturer a copy. The lecturer will have to coordinate with you to group any late
enrolments or other special cases.
You will only allow 10 mins at the end of your tutorial class to discuss
the group poster project. Your tutorial
must remain focussed on the tutorial problem sheets.
Remind students that posters are displayed outside the tutorial rooms so
that students have an idea of what to do.
Students must download
their own forms and all of their submissions must be TYPED.
You will have to mark:
Students must complete
each item.
The final grade and your comments on the individual summary for each
student is summarised in the “Tutor marking scheme” – you can obtain copies of
this form from the lecturer or project supertutor. It is important for you to give feedback on
the individual summary, so please fill in some comments. Also see the note below on accessing the
‘originality report’ in “Turnitin”.
Read through “Instructions for Tutors on how to
run the tutorial with the student poster presentations”.
You have tow weeks to complete the marking for all parts of the project after the final due date.
No resubmissions will be permitted so be sure that your students understand the instructions, in particular for the individual summary. The summaries should be concise, 200-300 words to complete the requirements set out in the project description.
Complete the tutor Questionnaire.
Encourage the students to continue working in their groups during the tutorial classes once the project is complete!
