Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
The learning and teaching approach will be mostly directed learning where the student, with the guidance of their Supervisor, will require identifying areas where more information is required. The student will then acts independently to find the data and consider its value and appropriateness to the exercise. The student is the main driver with the Supervisor facilitating the access to material and equipment. They must then apply this material to the issue they are investigating. Critical review and reflection on the material are very important and show that a deep learning has taken place.(LOs 1, 2, 3, 4, 5)The project is seen as preparation for future life in industry. A key part of a successful project is the ability of the student to act as an independent self-learner. The students learn to plan, keep a log book, conduct research and literature search, design, test, present results to colleagues as well as write a major technical report and defend it. Some projects are done in collaboration with industry.Research skills are developed and staff research activities are generally reflected in the projects.Students are supported as appropriate The module has a one – to –one staff student ratio. Students are expected to meet with their supervisor on a weekly basis ensuring that any issues are dealt with promptly. Overseas students and students with special needs are also supported with due account being taken of any special requirements.

The Project element is organised by a Project Co-ordinator. Once a project is chosen, you are allocated a Project Supervisor. Part-time students may undertake an industrial ‘live’ project. In which case they will also have an Industrial Supervisor at their place of work. Through agreed project aims and objectives, individual you will be continually guided and monitored by your respective supervisor and feedback on progress will be given verbally and through progress marks as they progress through the year. You are also given feedback after a Project Presentation towards the latter part of the project. Design: You will undertake an individual open-ended design problem solving exercise. Progress and performance is continually monitored and feedback continually given throughout. A Design Report will be produced on which comment and feedback given in written and verbal form.
|
Summative Assessment is based on practical work carried out, a technical report and viva. The practical work assessment is done by the supervisor who would assess how well the student carried out the project taking into account the autonomy, effort and thought the student has shown and demonstrated throughout the entire duration of the project (LOs 1-4).The report is marked by the supervisor and another member of academic staff. (LOs 1-5) The student defends their work through a 15 minutes presentation to a panel (viva) followed by 30 minutes of questions & answers. (LOs 1-5) Details are available in the project guidelines given to all staff and students. Feedback is generally given immediately after the viva and by the Supervisor on the report after the viva.
