I realise that some of you have been asking about whether there is class this week. Yes there is. This week, Senior Lecturer Dennis Sale will take you on a 2 part journey on Designing Performance Based Assessment. Part 1 of the workshop will be held this week and part 2 next week.

Hence, I would strongly urge you to attend the classes.
