Students' views and experiences of pass/fail assessment
Show Notes

In this podcast, we explore the institutional context for pass/fail assessment in undergraduate and postgraduate courses with colleagues from Leeds Arts University, and ways in which the experience of pass/fail assessment can support authentic learning. We hear from students about the role of tutor and peer feedback, and finally, consider its impact on skills development for future employability.

Our guest speakers are:
- Peter Hughes (Academic developmental manager) 
- Laura da Costa (Access and participation development manager)
- Max Mooney-Walsh (Level 5 student pursuing BA Hons Comics and Concept Art)
- Lennox Bruwer (Level 7 student, MA Animation, Interactive Technology, Video Graphics and Special Effects)
