Hi Andrew,
You were right.
The final exam was a great learning experience.
Most exams are more a "show what you know" event.
It was tough, but also very rewarding.
Only when I thought about plotting y=x then y=2x then y=3x and what was
happening did I select my function.
I must say, bloody rewarding seeing the line spin in a similar manner as the video.
Of all the papers I have done at Weltec, I think your lecture approach has pulled
more effort from every student, and obtained the best results and created
achievements for the students to be proud of.
Well done.
Talk to you soon.
Cheers

9. Key Features
The key features of the approach are:
 It is organised around a problem to solve
 The content of the course is embedded in to the project
 The need for knowledge is coming from the student
 Requires critical thinking, problem solving, collaboration, and
various forms of communication, often known as "21st Century
Skills."

10. How successful learning is promoted
The successful learning is promoted by:
 Students engagement
 Hands-on, Active learning
 Students collaboration, Teamwork
 Students reflecting on their own work

11. Steps for developing students capability within the approach
The key steps for developing students capability within the approach are:
 Tutor shouldn’t provide the answers
 Developing persistence skills within students
 Tutor to monitor the complexity level closely and help students if
necessary (zone of proximal development)
