Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
Students attend 1 hour lecture weekly and a 2 hour tutorial workshop every 2 weeks (averaging class contact of 2 hours per week). A week by week reading plan is provided, in addition to which students will be required to prepare for the workshop by reading a selection of articles and case studies. In the workshops students are allocated to learning groups for the duration of the module. At the end of each workshop they are required to submit handwritten notes of their discussions in response to questions provided for their consideration at the workshop.The requirement for active participation in learning groups and the peer feedback on contribution to these groups encourages the development of skills in verbal presentation of arguments, research, note-taking and co-operation with others.Formative feedback is given on the notes submitted after each workshop. The first stage of the assignment is submitted in week 4, allowing early feedback and the identification of any difficulties students may be having with the subject. The first assignment accounts for 20% of marks, and the final assignment submission 70%. The remaining 10 % is given for tutorial contribution, attending 4 out of 5 workshops. This contribution is assessed through the workshop submissions, tutor observation, and peer review. The establishment of learning groups provides support for students from diverse backgrounds. Learning materials are accessible to students with a range of diverse needs.Issues such as globalisation, the influence of EU membership and the impact of multi- nationals on employee relations are all considered in the module.
