Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
The module will be taught using a mixture of staff-led seminars and workshops, and student-led seminars. You will also be encouraged to attend relevant School of Applied Sciences research seminars. Workshops will help you to identify ground-breaking research, encourage a critical approach to the literature, describe and explore the notion of research impact, and discuss how research is presented and communicated by research professionals. You will work as part of a group to access, evaluate and present key scientific literature (LOs 1-3), leading a discussion on the impact that this has had/ will have on the future of biomedical sciences in a seminar setting (LO 4). Your group will also contribute to the module Moodle site by providing an annotated bibliography to support your seminar presentation, alongside a copy of the presentation itself, in advance of the seminar (LO 5).

You will work as part of a group to prepare and deliver one 30 minute seminar (LOs 1-4). Your group will also contribute to the module Moodle site by providing an annotated bibliography to support your seminar presentation, alongside a copy of the presentation itself, in advance of the seminar (LO 5). You will be formatively assessed on your seminar and annotated biblography by peers and module tutors. Assessment criteria for the seminar will be the same as those applied to the impact case study summative assessment, and should address all of the following using criteria agreed by the class at the beginning of the module:1. appropriateness of selected journal articles (impact, scientific background) 2. quality of your group’s annotated bibliography 3. quality of your group’s presentation of the topic background and current work 4. quality of the impact summary presented Your group will be able to discuss the topic and approach to your seminar in advance in order to receive feedback about your planned approach. You will also have the opportunity to give feedback to other students on their seminars. You will be encouraged to reflect upon previous relevant feedback, and devise ways of putting what you have learned into practise.
|
There is a single summative assessment (LOs 1-5), which is an impact case study written on your choice of seminar topic. This will be an individual written assessment (2000 words) and the assessment criteria for the impact case study will be the same as those agreed for the seminars by the class at the beginning of the trimester. You will have received formative feedback on your seminar and annotated bibliography, and you should respond to this in your impact case study. You will also be given an exemplar of a case study to help you with this.
