Learning and Teaching Methods including their alignment to LOsLO1-3 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 skillsLO1-3 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 (summative and formative)The assessments will be by two assignments (learning outcomes 1-3) Research/Teaching linkagesAt 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.

Module materials use of examples from different cultural backgrounds to ensure that diversity is effectively dealt with – the module materials recognise this diversity.
