Student managed learning: Whales Dolphins and Sharks

Case study describing a module designed to give students the freedom to investigate subject areas they enjoy the responsibility to manage their own learning and a framework to reflect on that learning.

Taken primarily by Marine and Freshwater Biology and Aquatic Zoology students this final year module gives students the opportunity in groups to investigate in depth an aspect of the biology of whales dolphins and / or sharks. The design of this module follows an Experiential Learning Model (Kolb 1984) and incorporates a Writing Learning Cycle such as that described by Peat Franklin and Taylor (2005).
