MultipleProgramme component

In the honours course Rebuilding Education, students are closely involved in their personal learning process through self-assessment. In the self-assessment process, students combine defining their personal learning objectives and project criteria with self-assessment of their own final product and work process. This means that in addition to their own course project, students are responsible for defining, monitoring and assessing the quality of the project and process themselves. The course coordinators support students in self-assessment through individual coaching and team support. In this course, students experience ownership of the learning process and there is a focus on formative dialogue.

Via the website van Rebuilding Education you will find more information about the course. Or see this pitch at one of the VU Show & Share events.
