Question 2 (Chapter 6) [30 marks]
A scholar and researcher called Sugata Mitra worked on a project called Self-Organised Learning Environments (SOLEs) and on the School in The Cloud.
The basic idea for SOLEs, is for the learners to work in a group of four (they choose their groups) on a single complex question. Each group needs an internet-enabled laptop to do the work. The groups are given a question such as “Why do we slip on wet surfaces?” or “Do trees breathe?” The learners are asked to give a presentation as a report back after a given time. Other than the instruction and the computers, they are largely left to answer the question on their own.

Question 3 (Chapter 7) [40 marks]
Create a concept map on “Assessment for different purposes” (see Chapter 7 of your textbook). Please visit the module page for examples and more detail on concept maps.
You may present this question as three separate concept maps or as a single concept map.
