Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
Taught thematically each lecture provides an opportunity for the student to learn about key issues underlying the development of modern city planning. The lectures begin by setting out the origins of the subject and then move on to the generics of the aesthetics, architecture, design and layout standards underpinning the application of such measures in the development of modern city planning. Each lecture refers case study material drawn from the experiences of modern city planning under the city beautiful and garden city movement in the capitals of Europe and North America. The tutorials reflect on these applications and the standards of architectural design they have laid out for the development of modern city planning.
|
The provision of formative feedback is a key component of the LTA approach underpinning this module. Each tutorial allows students to engage with and reflect upon module themes via a series of different learning tasks. These provide opportunities for the module tutor to help with your understanding and interpretation of module topics. This happens in class time and in response to the issues raised in class. Formative feedback arises via the discussion and analysis of tutorial questions, practical examples/cases and associated reflection on a range of learning tasks.
|
The assessments take the form of an essay designed to evaluate the student's understanding of planning and development. The assessments are set for weeks 8 and supported by tutorial classes designed to give the students an opportunity to plan their work, receive constructive criticism and act upon the comments received. The assessment shall address LOs 1-3. The assessment draws on literature found in textbooks and journal articles planning and development. The final assessment shall take the form of an Exam covering LOs 1-6.
