A PAPER DISCUSSION
Work-based learning often requires students to keep a logbook to record their activities, experiences, skills, and progress. Traditionally, these records are maintained using paper-based logbooks, which can be time-consuming for both students and educators to manage, review, and compile.
In this upcoming paper presentation, Aida Lina Alias from IMU and Hasnain Zafar Baloch from MILA University will explore how the Moodle Assignment activity can be customised to function as a digital logbook for work-based assessment.
During the webinar, they will share the approach taken to move from a traditional paper-based logbook to a digital solution within Moodle. They will demonstrate how students can use the digital logbook to document their learning, skills, attitudes, and workplace experiences, while educators can use it to monitor students’ progress and support the assessment of their learning.
The presenters will also highlight how keeping these records within the LMS can help simplify administrative processes. In particular, they will discuss how digital records can make it easier for administrators to compile students’ information, including eligibility and records of infringement required for Professional Examinations.
Join us to discover how an existing Moodle activity can be adapted to support a more organised, accessible, and streamlined approach to work-based learning and assessment.
