Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
This module is taught in weekly lecture sessions (LOs 1, 2, 3 & 4) and tutorials (LO4). Some sessions will lend themselves to demonstration and class discussion. A module Moodle site will include recorded lecture content and links to additional reading material to support independent study by both campus and distance students. Achievement of each Learning Outcome will be assessed by the written assessment.
|
The assessment is in the form of an annotated bibliography on one of several topics related to module content (section 15c). Early in the module, students are asked to complete a short bibliography exercise, on 2-3 key papers on a set topic, summarising them in a similar manner to the later summative assessment. When students have had a chance to complete their own brief annotated bibliography one or several model answers will be posted on Moodle as feedback. Students will then be given an opportunity to discuss this with the teaching team during a set class time.
|
Students are required to write an annotated bibliography for a topic related to the content taught in the module. A range of topics are given on the module’s Moodle site. Students are required to find a selection of articles that provide an overview of that topic including, but not exclusive to, its methodology and theory, overarching concepts and specific case-studies, early developments and current practice, consensus or disagreement in theory or methodology. Students must compile a bibliography of 10 articles that, if read, would give a good overview of that topic. For each article in the bibliography, they should explain and describe the main contribution of that article to understanding the topic. Students must also compare, contrast and discuss links between the articles and demonstrate critical assessment of articles’ findings.
