| Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
Learning & teaching methods including their alignment to LOsLO1-4 Each face-to-face activity uses a wide variety of audio-visual resources, group discussion, case analysis to develop student engagement. Directed study focuses on development of the concepts covered in the reading materials.Embedding of employability/PDP/scholarship skillsLO1-4 Students take part in developmental exercises so as to better understand their personal skills and attributes and how to develop them to increase their employability. Their PDP is considered an integral part of this development as they are encouraged to reflect on what they have learned in the module and apply it to their personal situation.Assessment (formative and summative)Assessment 1 is a piece of continuous assessment (coursework) and provides the opportunity to give students formative feedback on their progress. Assessment 1 will test the knowledge and competence of the student in LO1 and LO2. Assessment 2 is an examination and is designed to give students both formative and summative feedback on several aspects of the learning process that can be applied to other learning situations. It will test the knowledge and competence of the student in all the four learning outcomes. Research/teaching linkages At several points during the module the students are introduced to relevant research to underpin their learning. Students are also expected to undertake personal research for the assessments, which builds their research skills.Supporting equality and diversityThrough LO1-4 the issues of diversity are considered in the module. Module materials use a mix of examples from different cultural backgrounds to ensure that diversity is effectively dealt with. The module is taken by students from a wide variety of programmes - the module materials recognise this diversity. InternationalisationStudents on the module come from a wide ethnic and cultural mix.
|
Formative feedback - will be provided I the module through the self-assessment questions. This will enable you to self-assess your progress and understanding. This module also uses end of unit tests worth 10% of the final assessment marks, to provide continual formative feedback on a unit by unit basis to assist the student.The mid-module assessment feedback will also serve to act as formative feedback to inform the students in the completion of the end of module assessment.
|
Summative feedback will be provided throughout the module in the form of one component with two elements, Firstly a mid module assessment will offer formative and summative assessment (45%) assessing Los 1 and 2, and the final assessment will contribute the rest of the module marks (45%), covering all Los 1-4.
