This assessment is part of a flipped classroom approach wherein students engage with content before designated class-time and are assessed to gauge formative comprehension. Students write and submit a short critical response to weekly material. These are brought to class and used as prompts for collegiate discussion and progressive improvement.

In this assessment item students are asked to do a brief presentation on a character or theme from a course text. They are then asked questions (that they have not seen prior to the assessment) about the text and other course material. Both the presentation and question answers must be given in French. The task is designed to assess their comprehension of the course material and their fluency and spontaneity in French.

Designed to introduce students to the practical and methodological aspects of undertaking primary research within a disciplinary context, this assessment sees students work with research participants to plan and conduct qualitative interviews to produce portfolio of fieldwork documents and a final research report.

Underpinned by a problem-based learning pedagogy (PBL), this assessment sees students attend weekly workshops where they are presented with a scenario based on weekly course content (and related to a contemporary, real-world issue). Students work in small groups to formulate a response or solution to the problem/s, discussed in class.

Students travel to a relevant cultural institution or public space (e.g. gallery, museum, landmark), imagining they are appointed as industry experts, curators, attachés or tour guides. In groups, each student delivers a brief presentation on an assigned piece (e.g. artwork, artefact, or monument) so as to replicate professional presentation contexts.

Akin to an oral exam, but with a pedagogical emphasis on reflexivity and relational education, this assessment sees students respond to a question or prompt via a reflexive presentation and a dialogue with course staff where they speak to salient elements of their learning in relation to course themes.

This workbook technique uses progressive learning pedagogies to inform weekly activities that dynamically build on course content. Through formative and summative tasks, students complete one activity per week for the course duration. Feedback is regularly provided for formative tasks to enhance engagement and promote learning outcomes for higher-level summative tasks.

Designed as part of a research-led learning environment, this assessment is comprised two scaffolded assessments; a 30-minute oral presentation and an extended research essay (6000-8000 words). This assessment has been successfully administered as part of UQ's interdisciplinary (Law and Political Science and International Studies) Trafficking Persons Working Group.

This technique comprises three scaffolded tasks (a discipline-specific essay, contemporary case study presentation and reflection) delivered as part of an holistic pedagogy. These tasks can be administered separately, but are consolidated within this entry as a showcase of a unified approach to assessment in the context of an entire course.

Following a larger essay assessment, students construct a 1000 word article on the same topic of their major assessment piece) intended for publication on the online platform The Conversation. This exercise introduces students to the challenge of writing for a specific audience, and communicating complex concepts with clarity and concision.
