The case study demonstrates how carefully designed assessment can drive engagement, create authentic learning experiences, and develop professional skills through an innovative mini-project approach. By transforming traditional standalone laboratory sessions into an integrated investigation, students develop real-world research capabilities while maintaining high levels of engagement. The success of this approach, evidenced by positive student feedback, external examiner commendation, and consistent coursework completion, suggests it could serve as a model for other programs seeking to enhance laboratory-based teaching and assessment.
