Assessment
According to 2025/26 student activity data, 72% of students accessed the Assessment folder at least once before the start of teaching week 6. This highlights the importance of making assessment information available and up to date as early as possible, so that students can understand expectations and begin planning in advance.

|---|---|
| Assessment Overview | Add the assessment information for all components to provided table If copied from last year, update the due dates for all summative assessments |
| Assessment Component folder | Update the name of the assessment component folder(s) by replacing ‘[Assessment name as it appears on e:Vision]’ with the name of the assessment |

Add a Welcome Video
Creating a short welcome video is an effective way to set the tone of the module and communicate clear expectations around engagement, assessment, and communication in a friendly and approachable way. It helps students to orientate themselves within the module, understand how it is structured, and quickly identify where to find essential information.
The video should be added to the top of the module for the start of year and removed once teaching has started.
If you have a suitable Welcome video from the previous version of the module you can Copy the welcome video into this years Panopto folder.
To add the Panopto Video link:
- Click on the Plus (+) icon and select ‘More Tools’

- Click on ‘Insert’
The video link will now appear at the top of the module
