Abstract
This chapter reviews the use of an innovative form of digital assessment and reflective practice on a new Dispute Resolution Skills (DRS) module at Plymouth Law School. Although this is a localised study involving a relatively small cohort of 80 students, it has much wider potential relevance because its digital platforms and assessment strategies can be utilised with larger cohorts, nationally and internationally, as well as in other skills-based disciplines outside of law. The benefits in enhancing students’ transferable skills that are inherent in the revised module are also universally applicable.
