Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
This shall comprise a lecture of up to 2 hours with a linked 1-hour tutorial, held twice per day over a consecutive five day period. The face-to-face teaching delivered in Week 1 shall be supported by independent guided study and underpinned with work-based learning when back in the office and completing the assessments specified for the module (Weeks 2-15).Lectures are supported by comprehensive student notes (Module Study Guide Units) written in DL format. Where lectures relate to CESMM4/SMM7 Work Sections students will be expected to conduct preparatory study. Tutorials are based around developing 'measurement skills' based on worked examples supported by model answers produced as Student Learning Aids. Students are encouraged to read outside the teaching units and have weekly directed reading.The key skills developed partially align with the RICS Quantity Surveying and Construction Pathway Competencies at Levels 1 & 2 for ‘Quantification and Costing of Construction Works’. e.g.Level 1:Demonstrate a knowledge and understanding of the principles of quantification and costing of construction works as a basis for the financial management of contracts e.g.The quantification of construction works.The various Standard Methods of Measurement.The measurement of buildings and structures to agreed standards.Level 2:Quantifying construction works at various stages of a project.

The provision of formative feedback is a key component of the LTA approach underpinning this module. Formative feedback opportunities are built into each tutorial where students will be encouraged 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 students' understanding and interpretation of module topics. This formative feedback is delivered in class time in response to student contributions both individually and collectively. Formative feedback arises via the discussion and analysis of tutorial questions, practical examples/cases and associated reflection on a range of learning tasks. Coursework is set in report format with early return of a draft to give indication of students’ understanding of the subject and ability in assessment structuring, referencing and presentation, in addition to the research and analytical skills necessary to complete the assignment. In addition, time is set aside on a weekly basis for students to seek feedback from the module tutor in class. A number of assessment criteria exercises are completed during the tutorials to further improve the students’ final submission. Students will be expected to commit circa 36 hours in deciding, preparing, taking off and producing the finished Tender Document for a specified project.

Summative assessment in week 8 based on a Portfolio of work. The portfolio will require students to demonstrate essential professional skills to produce Tender Documents which include measuring large-scale works of an Engineering nature and structural steelwork. Students will be expected to commit circa 36 hours in deciding, preparing, taking off and producing the finished Tender Document for a specified project. The report will also include tasks based on work-related topics that satisfy the LOs to allow the students to reflect on work practices related to the module content. The report will provide 100% of the assessment grade.
