Title: Using student-created digital media assessment tasks to enhance understanding of basic science concepts: A case study.
Abstract: Students in tertiary-level introductory science courses often don’t progress beyond poorly structured mental models of foundation concepts since they have little time to construct meaning or acquire representational competence. The didactic teaching methods commonly used also encourage a surface learning approach. This can be problematic when students try to build on these key concepts in further programs, such as medicine. Innovative learning and teaching methods that foster higher-quality learning outcomes are important to facilitate students to gain a deeper understanding.
