Class teaching

Class teaching is applied when all students learn the same thing at more or less the same time and rate.

The example below endeavours to illustrate how this teaching mode can effective utilise the peer review approach.

Unit 36: Task P1:  Learner is required to outline an initial business idea using relevant criteria

The learner is required to present their initial business idea using relevant criteria and describe how to identify the target market for their - idividualised - business idea. The learner needs to identify a potential business venture for self-employment. The best way to do this is to - collaborate - brainstorm ideas along with some of the learners colleagues.

The following is a range of criteria - (each 50-100 words) - that the learner must use to make a detailed justification of their plan:

1. The chosen business type.
2. The aims and objectives.
3. The unique selling point and the competitive edge you will have.
4. Potential demand for the new business.
5. How the learner will balance their personal and business needs.
6. The estimated or potential profitability.
7. Business trends.
8. PEST analysis.
9. The management of self-esteem.
10. How a business plan will help the learner ensure that the business venture is a success.

A Peer-Mark assignment based on past students Unit 36: Task P1 paper assignment will provide new students - exposure to variety of approaches to the same task. Also, the activity will engage students in critical thinking i.e. emphasising the process not the final product.

Example of Peer-Mark (Step 1, Step 2 and Step 3) settings for this example.
