At the University of Dundee, assigning assignments at the beginning of the semester can improve students’ and lecturers’ teaching and learning experience.
The above will reduce their stress levels, as they will know what to expect and can plan accordingly.
Assigning assignments at the beginning of the semester by lecturers will be helpful in improving the quality of teaching and learning experiences of lecturers and students alike. Students will have more time to plan and prepare for their assessments and be more engaged with the course material. At the same time, lecturers will benefit from better-prepared students and more accurate assessment results.
Moreover, lecturers will have access to more accurate assessment results and be able to modify their teaching for improved student outcomes.
In conclusion, this proposal outlines the importance of assigning assignments at the beginning of the term. These measures will benefit both students and lecturers by reducing stress levels, providing more accurate assessment results, and providing a better quality of teaching and learning. Ultimately, this measure will lead to a better learning experience for all students and a more positive learning environment at the University of Dundee.
I call on colleague councillors to support the motion so that an enabling environment can be created for lecturers and students regarding the matter.
Thank you.
