Researchand Scholarly Activity
In 2015, an independentresearch team was formed to work on a paper in the area of teaching andlearning, in particularly looking at the workings of a ‘Wiki’. The group is made up of a fellow Academic, acolleague from eLearning, and an independent researcher.
A ‘Wiki’ is currently beingused to assign, monitor, assess, and offer groups of students accumulativegroup report assignment feedback, from which the results will be analysed,after undertaking an end of term qualitative survey, the first of which took placeduring March 2016 – April 2016, the second of which took place in March 2017 –April 2017, the third of which took place in March 2018 – April 2018, thefourth of which will take place in March 2019 – April 2019, the results ofwhich will hopefully lead to a publication in the area of teaching andlearning, and will be looking at group assignment work, group dynamics,assessment and feedback.
In 2001, I succeeded inwinning a scholarship from MUBS via an open competition to pursue a PhD doctorateprogramme. Professor Abby Ghobadian wasin charge of the awarding committee at the time.
