The students have a minimum of two opportunities to receive feedback from staff before their final exam. Firstly, there is feedback upon the non-assessed formative assessment represented by the written tutorial exercise. Secondly, there is feedback provided upon the assessed coursework: this feedback takes two forms, a general feedback pointing out common errors which is posted on MyAberdeen, and specific written feedback on the returned pieces of assessed coursework. |
