Thanks for this Rob - I'm attaching something which may be of interest -
and might even be somehting whcich I could buil don for your next
newsletter. It's a view of PDP, and 'designing this in', from the
viewpoint of an academic who is overseeing re-design of a curriculum.
What I'e attached is part of a document circulate dto staff engaged in
rationalising course provision, and encouraging them to think about PDP
and Learning strategies at the same time as thinking of module titles
and content.
What I thin we have is a practical system, which generates real
evidence by the student. One remaining uncertainty is whether the
resulting 'progress' file should be submitted for formal assessment.
Wonder if there are strong feelings from those who've gone that far??

Dear Colleagues
Following the circulation of PDP-UK issue 2 we've now been able to add
considerably to the contribution from Helen Richardson, and an updated
version of this is therefore appended.
My best wishes
Rob
