TABLE 3.
Students’ and staff comments about the poster presentations.
Student comments | Staff comments |
---|---|
Logistics | Assessment and feedback |
Larger venue please/better venue | The students did not participate effectively in the question and answer part of the presentation |
Venues got crowded during presentation, they were too small for the number of people | Possibly [need] an extra area in the marking rubric to assess the flow of ideas, concepts and coherence. Could be assessed on its own |
Assessment | - |
This is a good and beneficial way of assessing group research activities | - |
Learning | - |
I love everything about the poster presentation | - |
I think it is a great opportunity to learn how to conduct research | - |
Poster presentation was a learning experience, it has helped in identifying and learning more about components of poster | - |
It would be interesting to learn how to publish our results in a local/international journal | - |
Group work | - |
Consider grading individuals for their input and presentation | - |
Group work allows individuals to be lazy and not to do much for the overall assessment | - |
