Students work in pairs to create a short (3 minute) educational video for presentation during a scheduled tutorial time. Students choose for the topic of their video a real-life context that allows them to explore and teach a concept relevant to the course.

Underpinned by the principles of authentic assessment, students are required to create an infographic and accompanying video presentation. This gives students an opportunity to develop their skills with communicating economic thinking in non-technical plain language to a range of audiences using different modes.

In small groups students create a short YouTube video production communicating an otherwise complex or scholarly argument (developed out of an essay assessment item) in a form appropriate to an open audience. Ideally scaffolded with reflexive assessment items, this technique emphasises key workplace skills in production, messaging and interpersonal communication.
