Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
The student is required to be employed as a Graduate Level Apprentice to complete this module. The students taking this module are primarily based in and around Edinburgh. The learning and teaching methods align to learning outcomes 1 to 5.The module is designed around online and student-centred learning in practice with an emphasis on developing a learning community where students can learn and develop together in informal networks in which mutual respect and trust prevails. The module is introduced by an induction workshop which introduces students to the module, online resources and the assessment process. During the induction session presentation and communication skills are covered and practiced with formative feedback given.Students will develop a reflective log which acts as the focus for discussion with their line manager and academic tutor. The tripartite nature of this agreement is important to ensure that the work based activities not only meet the requirements of the students and academic assessment but also the employer benefits through improved staff skills and resources. This will normally be achieved by a face-to-face meeting between all three parties but other means of communication, such as Skype, could also be used.During this module there will be two mentoring visits to the company by the academic tutor, to monitor progress and provide feedback. Support will be also given through online discussion groups.
|
Tutorial/practical sessions are used to provide formative feedback for students on the module. You will be given formative feedback on your reflective log during your 3 visits. Formative feedback will be given on the students reflective log during weeks 4 to 6. During these sessions, module tutors assess and evaluate student performance on tasks relevant to the summative assessment, providing timely feedback which supports the development of students’ capabilities. Work-based learning takes place throughout the GA, from interaction with colleagues and the teaching team, from reflection, from maintaining a reflective and collecting evidence. Workplace mentors will also provide formative feedback during the two face-to-face meetings.
