Coursework for Promoting Teaching and Learning
Kandamby, G. W. T. C.
International Journal of Higher Education, v6 n6 p129-138 2017
Teaching is to be amalgamated with learning environment where students attend work with interest. Coursework was designed and conducted for Quantity Surveying module from 2014 as a study and found that it has supported for promoting teaching and learning. It was revealed that encouragement made only for attendance is not sufficient to obtain high performance. With developed coursework in 2016, students have obtained high marks for yearend paper reaching to grades A and B by 35% and 46% respectively. In addition, more than 82% of students have expressed that the method conducted was at good level. High impact obtained in 2015 and 2016 may be due to the experience gathered by the teacher in implementing this method continuously and therefore this coursework benefited not only to the students but also to the teachers as both parties are able to achieve their objectives with high performances.
