Simulated client-practitioner meeting in groups
Students participated in workshops that were hosted by industry practitioners. These workshops focused on building professional skills such as building rapport, teamwork and professionalism. Students then simulated a client-practitioner meeting using a provided case study. The industry practitioners took on the role of a client.
Students were placed in groups, practiced their assessment in tutorials and received peer feedback. Students also submitted a group report with solutions to the case study, and a reflection on the task. Industry feedback was included in the marker feedback.

Challenges associated with this type of online assessment:
- It is difficult to have a long simulated client-practitioner meeting due to time pressure. As a result, students may struggle with displaying all their interdisciplinary skills.
- Difficulty to work in groups due to different dynamics and working styles.
- Technical difficulties may be present.
