Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
Learning & teaching methods including their alignment to LOsLO1-3 Each face-to-face activity uses a wide variety of audio-visual resources, group discussion, case analaysis to develop student engagement. Directed study focuses on development of the concepts covered in the reading materials.Embedding of employability/PDP/scholarship skillsStudents 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 assessement (coursework) and provides the opportunity to give students formative feedback on their progress. 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. Assessment 1 will test a student's understanding and competence in LO1 and LO2. Assessment 2 will test a student's competence and understanding in all the three learning outcomes under examination conditions. 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 diversity. 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.
