The lecturer presented the text conference to the student group as a resource available for them to use to facilitate discussion about the issues raised in the seminars, and also as an opportunity for the group which was leading any given seminar session to provide some advance guidance to the others attending about what was going to be discussed. Access to the conference also continued after the end of the seminar meetings, with the hope that students would continue to use it for discussion of general issues, or as a means of discussing their preparation for the final examination.
One of my ideas before ... I gave a presentation, I thought it would be a great idea to put some of the issues up on the board but, unfortunately, I didn't get around to it. There was too much work, I guess, just getting the talk put together. [Student] |
In terms of having done the exams, that was a bad approach. I probably should have been less concerned with the information I needed to "learn", quote/unquote, and actually manipulate the information. [Student] |
I don't remember there being new waves of issues ... It may have been that by that stage I probably wasn't using it so much. I certainly don't remember there being much talk about - I was doing the "workplace and IT" - there being much talk about that. I probably might not have been looking at it so much by then. [Student] |
And then I meant to go back and have a look at it before my exams, and sort of refresh my memory - get back into some of the debates, some of the issues, some of the things that were quite interesting - but unfortunately didn't. [Student] |
