Peer-learning activity for communicating algorithms in a Level 2 computer science module

The aim of the project is to produce a recommendation to the M269 module team on whether to include a peer activity in algorithm design in future TMA questions. A secondary aim is to produce novel research on an important, yet unexplored, area of computer science education which may be of interest to the wider community both within the School of Computing and Communications and beyond the OU. The objective is to complete a pilot study of 20 students using OpenStudio, produce data on its effectiveness, analyse the results, and disseminate the findings.
