Hello Jo
Can I refer you to an article from the SEDA magazine a while back - it might make interesting reading on this topic . . .
Magne, P. (2012) Assessment equivalence frameworks: to be or not to be? Educational Developments. Vol.13.1: 25-28
Available at: http://www.seda.ac.uk/past-issues/13.1
Hope it provides some food for thought.
Best wishes

Subject: Assessment on 20-credit modules
Hello!
We're working on rationalising the assessment on our modules at Roehampton and I've been tasked with finding out the volume of assessment other universities use for 20-credit modules. This is particularly in terms of word count for essays and number of summative components students have to complete at all UG levels. I'm very happy to compile and distribute a list of reponses, if this would be of use. I know this is a very flawed question to ask and skewed way to look at assessment and apologise for this, but thank you very much in advance for any information. Ballpark figures are fine!
Best wishes
