ASSESSMENT

Tour Practical requirementsThe main assessment task while we are in Havana will be to prepare and lead a tour of the city. Your tour should meet the following criteria:

It includes a logical and coherent argument throughout and displays deep insight and considerable originality. The tour may include high levels of audience participation and be supported by a range of resources and documentation.

It will take in a range of quite appropriate sites within the city of Havana and show some evidence of teamwork. PEER ASSESSMENT: You will be asked to peer assess a tour. This will require your group to meet up once you have been on a tour and prepare a feedback sheet about that tour. It is probably best to discuss the tour in detail before you decide on a mark. You should consider the strengths of the tour you have taken and then to consider how it could have been improved. Think about these in the context of the marking criteria (on the feedback form). Make sure you agree on the comments prepared for the feedback sheet – these comments should be constructive and suggest how you think any improvements could have been made (not just listing the areas that could be improved). You will then be asked to meet with the member of staff who went on the tour to discuss and negotiate a final mark and agreed feedback for the group. This process is intended to help develop your understanding of the marking process and the interpretation of the marking criteria. UNIVERSITY OF MANCHESTER CUBA TOUR MARKING AND FEEDBACK SHEET
