Lectures deal with the basics of the subject and seek to convey the knowledge base to the students. Tutorials and practical work is used to encourage students to apply management skills applied to conservation and preservation of historic buildings. Tutorials are also effective in producing argument for and against conservation in different circumstances. The module looks at conservation methods employed internationally and uses examples of excellence from the UK and Europe to define solutions and good practice.Students are encouraged to read outside the teaching notes and have directed reading specified in the module study guide. Some of the individual topics benefit from some of the top Scottish external experts giving directed guest lectures which keep the module up to date and give a deep understanding of their specific subject areas. The module deals with old and historic buildings, which is essential for Built Environment students, consideing the percentage of building stock that falls directly into this category. Reaserach/teaching linkagesLaboratory based exercises will provide opportunities for exploration and discussion around topics and provides the opportunity to link the material delivered in the formal lectures with practical demonstrations. Where appropriate this also provides the opportunity for staff to introduce students to relevant areas of their current research. Supporting equality and diversityThe nature of the delivery of the various components that make up this module provides scope for engaging students in the module contenet in ways which can be varied to accomodate a wide range of needs. Particular attention will be given to students with specific special needs, on an individual basis, to ensure that they receive an equivalent experience.

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 you 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 your 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.

The module is assessed by one piece of coursework which is designed to develop the students' practical and written skills.
