I really like the vertical layout of the form and love your format (avoiding repetitiveness and less cluttered!) It is visually more effective and reader friendly.
It is great that you introduced a guest lecturer for the brief under the pandemic. I found that students can be demotivated within the hybrid learning environment, so as an educator, it is even more important to provide an extra exciting learning environment and this can stimulate students’ learning motivations. I’d like to hear about how it went.
I always think that one-to one feedback is necessary in some cases, but it can be a little intimating for students. The large group feedback is a great approach as students can interact with each other and can also be receptive and reflective on their own work with a wider perspective.
Small group working can providing a familiar learning playground to students and it’s great how you organised it. I don’t know much about Buying and Merchandising disciplines, but it is very well organised and straightforward so it is easy to follow for students. I also really like that you created a mini time table. It is clear and also visually effective.
You have added the possible challenges. It is an excellent idea that I’d like to adapt into my lesson plan. I find that addressing challenges has become more important as we face more unpredictable challenges under the pandemic situation.
Hope it all went well with your lesson.

This is very comprehensive and clear...the aim is you are using a concept Omni-Retailing and Luna & Curious as a case study as a model to direct student's project research...
Having a title theme of the session may also help? This is probably on Aula. Ie Analysis of Omni-Retailing using Luna & Curious as a case study. To help direct the students. This may not be relevant. Coming from an outside perspective of design tutor (me!)
Really love you integrate the talk into the curriculum and take the time to refer to in a structured delivery time set aside. SO SO valuable...really links real work to theory and makes really tangible for the students. Our talks always feel extra as opposed to integrated into the curriculum.
Great using breakout rooms. This inspired me to use more and to have sub groups that the students keep in the unit/ course. Do you use pre questions (on Aula) as prompts for the breakout rooms as part of the flipped learning to focus/ specify the learning objectives? Or do the student find they like having more freedom to drive their questions? Have to say the few FBBM students on the Shoe Elective were strong thinkers.
Really good use of flipped learning...This made me think... in a class we typically expect a lecture and then post a discussion. One thing I noticed with Virna and flipped learning is that as a student I feel I want to discuss with my peers what I have learned in prep for the session. I wonder if there could be a chance for the students to share as a group a few key points they learned, ask what they think they will gain from the last session at the start?
Learning outcomes are very clear in the subject knowledge and good for the students to understand they are learning transferable general skills (ie research via a case study) (so brilliantly delivered!) Lucky students!
Last, noticed Evaluation and Feedback left blank. Do you pull students out of the break-out rooms at the end for a few minutes to ask for feedback then but I know this is hard as there is always so little time. You can also do a mid-unit feedback form too.
Makes me want to learn more about the mysterious world of FBBM!
