Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
The main learning process is through placements whereby you will undertake a minimum of 30 weeks paid employment and derive learning from your experience and observation. Briefing sessions will be provided in your second year before you undertake your placement which will advise you of the work-based learning process and help with your CVs and interview skills via the Placement Office. You will attend two student recall days on Campus, one in January and the other at Easter-time to ensure that you are achieving the Learning Outcomes and to prepare you for completing the final report. The main focus of these events will be to encourage you to adopt a reflective/analytical approach to your learning and to share experiences with others in the same situation.It is important for the placement to offer a learning experience that links theory and practice in an environment which connects the skills acquired at University with the workplace. The application of these skills shall be evidenced by means of a learning plan and reflective diary designed to capture the workplace learning and experience the environment offers.
|
Formative assessment is provided in the early stages of your placement by producing your draft learning plan (Week 3). This represents your first attempt as to how you expect to fulfil the learning outcomes which are required in your learning portfolio. The draft learning plan will be discussed with your programme leader/tutor and provides a basis for your learning during the course of your placement. The draft learning plan will account for 10% of the marks of the overall module and will comprise approximately 1,000 words. (LOs 1&2).
|
You will keep an online diary during your time in the work placement which will be used to compile a portfolio of work tasks undertaken (approx. 5,000 words) (LOs 3&4) and ultimately a final report summarising the experience you have gained in line with the learning outcomes, allowing you to reflect on the practices you have encountered and to evaluate the information you have gathered from your time in the workplace. (Approx. 4,000 words). (LOs 5&6).
