1. Previous necessary knowledge: This seminar is appropriate for any instructor who teaches through group projects. No specialist knowledge is needed.
2. Objectives: Making learning challenging and more inspirational for students is highly topical and many are seeking new ways to do this. The seminar will introduce a novel method of injecting additional motivation into group projects
3. Contents: Presentation, followed by a facilitated discussion. The seminar will show examples of how students have been encouraged to learn while creating their own audio-visual media as a replacement for the more conventional written or oral report.
4. Methodology: Using survey data, collected over several years at two separate UK universities, the presenter will provide evidence that this medium generates much needed engagement, helps teams to bond and promotes a deeper understanding of the subject matter. A specially prepared ‘toolkit’ will be available to assist and encourage lecturers who might wish to try out this method for themselves.
