Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
Learning, Teaching and assessment methods (LTAS)Each week students attend a 3 hour seminar. The seminars will utilise a variety of case studies to compliment lecture input. Workshops will encourage students to actively participate in their learning and, at the same time, provide opportunities for weekly formative feedback through group work. The aim throughout will be to develop the student’s ability to apply the knowledge learnt in the seminars, and in their reading, to a range of practical scenarios.There are three elements of assessments in this module:The essay due in week 9 requires the students to answer one essay question from a selection of three drawn from the topics covered in weeks 1-6 (LOs 1-3)The open book exam in week 15 tests the student’s ability to provide users of financial data with the information they need to improve decision-making. (LOs4&5).Students are also required to submit a CPD plan, log and reflective discussion citing relevant examples relating to the outcomes of this module - this is a requirement of all CIPD approved programmes.Employability This module has been designed to comply with CIPD standards as part of an MSc in Human Resource Management and MSc International Human Resource Management typically taken to further career aspirations. Employability skills therefore form an integral part of module design and are embedded throughout. The module involves the application of academic theories and concepts to ‘real-world’ case analysis in order to formulate solutions to global competitive issues. Through the module students will enhance problem solving, numerical, communication, team building, time management and presentation skills. Transferable skills are also evident within the module’s assessment strategy with the first assessment developing research and report-writing skills whilst the exam involves analytic skills.Research/ teaching linkagesAll team members undertake scholarly activity within the are
