This has created an issue in terms of progression for the January start students. If they haven't completed or have failed a module, they have little time to re-do work before Spring Semester starts. We are looking at introducing exams for referred work as this is the only thing that could be sat and marked in the window we have available. There would be summer exams for September start students who have referred work too. A number of our January start students (plus September starters) have additional learning needs that could put them at a disadvantage when it comes to exams. What adjustments would you put in place for exams? Sometimes giving extra time wouldn't be enough. Is there another way we could assess these students? Any ideas or suggestions are greatly appreciated.
