Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
A series of interactive lectures introduce the diversity of marine organisms and a variety of ecosystems (LOs 1-4). You will prepare an audio-visual presentation on the biology of a specific organism or their habitat (LO5) in a format attractive to a broader audience, which could be screened on a loop in a visitor centre/museum setting. A series of tutorials will support this exercise with sessions reflecting on presentation skills/formats, public outreach and assessment criteria.
|
You will prepare a plan for your audio-visual presentation, including the chosen topic, the most important points of information that you want to get across and the key recent paper(s) to be included. You will receive feedback on your plan to inform the following summative submission. You will be provided with example exam questions from past papers that will be discussed and formative feedback will be provided in a group session. This will assist you with the final summative assessment.
|
An audio-visual presentation (narrated and subtitled PowerPoint presentation recorded in Panopto) will be submitted based on your choice of topic which could relate to a specific organisms or marine habitat. There will also be a final exam on topics covered in the module.
