Introduction
Since 2009 undergraduate science students have been preparing online group projects as part of their ANAT2341 Embryology course. Each year a main topic is selected in consultation with the course coordinator. Each student group (4-5 students) then selects a specific topic within the main theme that they then research and work collaboratively on that topic throughout the semester. The project is then assessed by their peers before being finally edited for submission as their group assessment component for the course.
- These projects are the sole work of undergraduate science students and may contain errors in fact or descriptions.

Before 2009
Prior to 2009, students in ANAT2341 Embryology course worked on similar projects, but in the form of research posters. Towards the end of the course the posters were presented to the class for peer assessment.
Other Assessments
- Students also submit individual assessments each week online based upon the practical class they had just completed.
- A similar project format is used in the science ANAT3231 Cell Biology course.
