Conversation with Clara yesterday, 12 November 2012

I met Clara on other matters yesterday afternoon however we talked about my dissertation as well. 

• Invite interview participants to bring an example of a multimodal assignment to the interview to job their memory.
• The fact that I don't have experience of marking multimodal assignment could be significant. Mention in my methodology that part of my background research ahead of the interviews will be to mark a piece of multimodal work from one of my MSc E-L peers. It could come from the Course Gallery.
• There could be ethical implications of looking at (or inviting interview participants to discuss) examples of submitted assignments. Would permission of students be required?
  
• Look at Royce Sadler's work on quality.
• Look at Online Assessment literature - good stuff about quality in there.

and the really big question:

• "Am I going to find out anything interesting?"
  

The answer, yes, I think so.
