Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
This module uses a range of methods: lectures, screenings, tutorials, and independent study to provide a variety of independent and group learning opportunities. It is supported by VLE to promote discussion and collaboration outside of class hours. You will develop theoretical, critical and historical knowledge of women’s writing and film-making and apply this knowledge to in-class discussion.Lectures will vary in format, including talks and discussions, as well as regular opportunities for discussion and debate on key issues each week. (LOs 1,2, 3)Tutorials will be student-led, and will require students to prepare discussion questions which will then be selected by the module leader. (LOs 1,2, 3)Students are encouraged to contribute relevant content to the module to be shared on the VLE and a dedicated dossier space will be available to allow for this. (LOs 1,2,3,4)

Formative assessment on this module takes the form of an optional essay plan to be submitted in Week 9. A template for the plan is provided in the module handbook and includes guidance on submitting an annotated bibliography. Students will then be given individual feedback to aid them in developing and executing an individual research essay.

Students undertake two summative assessments on this module: one oral presentation (worth 30%) to be submitted in Week 8 (Los 1,2,3,4) and one critical research essay worth 70% to be submitted in Week 13 (Los 1,2,3).The presentation is normally undertaken in pairs, for a maximum of fifteen minutes in duration. All presentations take place during class times in Week 8 orstudents can opt to work individually and submit a recorded presentation using suitable software. Students are required to submit a presentation outline on the day of the presentation (requirements for this are covered in the assessment brief.) This assessment requires students to engage in independent research, choosing to present on a woman writer or filmmaker not covered on the module. Students receive their grade and feedback within one week of completing this assessment and have the option to develop this research into a topic for the final essay.The critical research essay (3000 words) requires students to work individually, to produce an essay plan (formative assessment due Week 9) and then a critical research essay based one of three possible briefs. This assessment allows students to write about a variety of module themes, and to develop their independent research skills building towards the demands of the dissertation in honours year.
