MiniWorkshop tasks
Every week there will be materials provided for the mini-workshop task (the week before). These will be in the form of videos or reading materials. Then each Monday, there will be a 30-minute mini-workshop task for your peer group to do based on those materials.
GradingThe grading criteria will be specified by the start of the course. Approximately 25% of the grade consists of peer-evaluation and 25% of MiniWorkshop tasks. The other 50% comes from the individual portfolio task.
