develop further skills

Students will gain knowledge, skills and attitudes by participating in a project or projects over an extended period of time. These projects will give students the opportunity to investigate and respond to an engaging and complex problem, issue, question or challenge. Each project will include the following:
- Specific vocation pathway knowledge and skills
- Sustained inquiry
- Authenticity and real-world context
- Student voice and choice so students have control of key aspects of the project
- Reflection where both tutors and students reflect on their learning and the effectiveness
of their inquiry
- Critique and revision including giving, receiving and using feedback to make improvements
- Public product where students have the opportunity to present to people beyond
the classroom.
The project based learning will also be supported with face to face and web-supported sessions including: tutor demonstrations, tutorials, discussions, teamwork activities, self-directed learning, practical workshops and assignments. - Assessment Criteria
- Students must attempt all components of the portfolio and may resit any component once. To pass the module, students must achieve a pass grade for all components of the portfolio.
Students may also be eligible to apply to NZQA for the Assessment Standards associated with each project successfully completed. - Learning and Teaching Resource
