Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
Teaching will comprise sets of mini-lectures, which will total 30 minutes each week. This material will be pre-recorded and made available via the VLE.There will also be twelve live taught sessions, each of two hours in duration, which will include editorial masterclasses, critical self-reflection tasks and formative feedback on in-class exercises and homework (LOs 1-5). These sessions will provide you with the necessary information, analytical framework and creative guidance for further activities, to be undertaken independently or as part of group work (LOs 1-5). Formative feedback will be delivered by a variety of methods - such as professional editorial feedback in a masterclass setting and/or written feedback uploaded to the VLE – designed to help embed learning and prepare you for summative assessment challenge at the end of the trimester.
|
Formative feedback delivered in a masterclass style will be given on a range of writing challenges during the trimester. The mid-trimester formative assessment offers an opportunity to receive feed forward on a shorter mock version of this module’s summative assessment task. Formative Assessment #1 asks you to write a short story (approximately 1000 words) in one of the genres or sub-genres covered by this module, accompanied by a critical self-reflection (approximately 500 words). You will be asked to self-assess that work against a set of defined criteria, and to submit supporting statements as brief bullet points. You will receive written feedback uploaded to the VLE to help you prepare for the end of trimester summative assessment. (Learning Outcomes 1, 2, 3, 4, 5).
|
Summative assessment will take the form of a creative portfolio (Learning Outcomes 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5), due in Week 13. For this, you will write a short story (approximately 3000 words) in one of the four genres covered by this module, accompanied by a critical self-reflection (approximately 1000 words).
