- Wiki
- Wikis are websites that are developed collaboratively by a community of users, allowing any user to add and edit content. The completed entry should appear as a cohesive and integrated response to an overall problem.
As an assessment form, this task sees students make individual contributions to a collective wiki on a topic relating to the course content.
While wikis are created collaboratively course coordinators can track students’ individual contributions through colour-coded text, or dedicated sections for each group member.

- YouTube
- Student production of a YouTube video..
This is an example of technology enriched learning and authentic assessment.
The video can take various forms including documentary-style, dramatic or theatrical renditions, stop motion/lego reconstructions or vlogs.
Students can complete the task in groups and upload their video to a playlist on a private YouTube channel to be presented in the final weeks of semester as part of a class showcase. This technique familiarises students with transferable skills inherent to the creative production process, including using video editing functions, and shooting using a range of digital devices (including mobile phones).
