LCVP Case Studies

LCVP Assessment: Case Studies

As well as using the case studies as examination preparation, they may also be used as a teaching resource for all parts of the curriculum.   

Mind maps are an excellent visual way of preparing for both the case study and the written paper.  They can be used to link to all of the Specific Learning Outcomes (SLOs). 

How will you use your LCVP mindmap? It maybe a stimulus for a summary.  Why not construct questions and answers from the Case?
