Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
The module uses a student-centred approach supported by a combination of lectures and tutorials given in Hong Kong, and Moodle (LOs1-5). The case studies (1400 word limit) assess your ability to critically analyse data from a variety of sources and to formulate a reasoned and holistic approach to the investigation and therapeutic approaches taken in disease management (LOs 3-5).The majority of you taking this module will be employed in Hong Kong as laboratory scientists. You are encouraged to bring experience from your work place to the online discussion forum. Teaching will also reflect the international nature of this programme, with a range of examples of diseases and toxicants from different parts of the world being used. You will also use current primary reference sources throughout the module and in their assessments.The module is supported by a VLE (Moodle) which is used to provide class materials (including lectures and tutorials/workshops), resource such as animations, videos, direct links to relevant web-based resource, e:submission of all coursework, self-assessment tests, interactive teaching resource, and independent study materials to cover expected prior-learning.
|
An on-line formative self-assessment test is given early in the module. This provides an opportunity for you to get early feedback on their learning. The first case study also provides formative feedback towards the larger study.
|
Case studies (week 6 & 11) requires you to answer questions based on relevant cases. The critical review (week 12) requires you to review a given set of papers. This will be set by staff in Hong Kong, based on research in their area.
