Abstract
This paper will explore the introduction of
an innovative approach to learning and
assessment within a master’s leadership
programme aimed at health and social
care professionals (the majority of
students are nurses). The notion of
patchwork texts (PT) as an approach to
curriculum development and assessment
(Ovens, 2003) is integral to the
programme. Action research was
undertaken to explore the impact of the
PT approach on student learning. Initial
results are extremely positive and detailed
evaluation will be discussed within the
paper.
Objectives:
To evaluate students’ experience of the
‘patch work text’ approach.
To explore whether a ‘patch work text’
approach supports student assessment.
