Cristina Lafuente @clafuentemar.bsky.social · 15/02/2025Why? Writing economics essays is different from other subjects + they come from high school with different expectations and levels. With large numbers, it becomes unfeasible to run seminars or give them all feedback before the final exam. [2/5] 100 0
Cristina Lafuente @clafuentemar.bsky.social · 15/02/2025How? Essentially, teach them to grade essays - build a marking guide, teach them to use it in an interactive (thanks Mentimeter!) online seminar, where we mark 3 example answers, and then ask them to mark each other's work using @moodlehq.bsky.social workshop module. 110 0
Cristina Lafuente @clafuentemar.bsky.social · 15/02/2025Results? Less than 5h of work total: picking a questions from their tutorials, prepping, cleaning and adapting my marking scheme, running he seminar and setting up Moodle. Participation was very high (2/3 completed all the tasks) and by their own account, they learned a few things! [4/5] 110 0
