Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
This module will be taught using a combination of interactive lectures, tutorials, and practical classes. Lectures will cover the essentials of the main topics and tutorials will facilitate discussion and a deeper understanding of particular mechanisms. Tutorial time will also be used to provide some guidance on poster design. An assessed element of this module will include the production of a scientific poster, which will contain information on disease pathology and the molecular mechanisms of current treatment options. This activity will incorporate an element of peer assessment. Moodle support will be available to provide a repository for lecture materials and learning resources.
|
The formative assessment element of this module will be developing a protocol to test the efficacy of medications. You will be given a selection of reagents and equipment, then using the practical skills you have developed to date, working in pairs, you will determine the best method to compare and contrast two different types of medication. Oral formative feedback will be given on your protocol design and your practical technique. In preparing your poster, you will be provided with exemplars reflecting good and poor practice in poster presentations.
|
There will be two elements of summative assessment for this module including; designing a scientific poster and a 2.5 hour formal exam. Towards the end of the module you will design and create a scientific poster based on a particular disease, it will focus on the mode of diagnosis and current therapeutic options. The disease will be chosen from a pre-determined list. This task specifically covers LOs 3 & 4. The final exam will take place at the end of the module. This exam will cover elements from the lectures, tutorials and practical sessions and will incorporate LOs 1-4.
