Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
One-hour weekly tutorials/seminars will give students the opportunity to discuss issues in depth related to the development of the modern novel that are introduced and explored through the weekly lectures. The emphasis will be on independent learning, reading and scholarship as well as in-class discussion. (LOs 1,2,3,4,5). These seminar sessions will mirror the lecture series and will provide a medium for student-centred learning (LOs 1,2,3,4,5). Students will develop their theoretical knowledge of the modern novel and apply this knowledge to the preparation of assignments and weekly tutorial questions.
|
Weekly tutorial discussion, both in groups and at whole class level, will provide formative ideas that can be applied in the summative assignments. (Such discussions also take place in the interactive lecture slots.) In particular, the lecturer provides questions as discussion topics that both allow discussion around lecture themes and feed into summative essay questions (LOs 2,3,4). Students need to complete these questions in conversation with their peers, or alone if they would prefer (LO 5).
|
Students will undertake two summative assessments during the module. The completion of an essay (40%) in week 6, on aspects of a particular text chosen by the student from a shortlist of questions (LOs 2,3,4,5). The second assignment will take the form of a longer essay (60%) in week 12 in which the student will undertake a study of a particular theoretical and/or cultural issue with reference to a range of texts and readings (LOs 1,2,3,4,5). The topic will be chosen by the student from a shortlist.
