Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
You will attend for one day per month during term time for intensive face-to-face lectures, workshops, tutorial and computer-based practical sessions (LO 1-4). Each of these days will typically involve two half day sessions, each consisting of up to 1 hour of lecture followed by up to 2.5 hours of tutorials involving labs/ practical work for the statistics aspects of the module or by tutorials involving seminar/class group work for the organisational aspects of the module. This will be further supported by online material and discussion forums using a variety of communication technologies such as Moodle and Skype. You will be encouraged to develop your learning through peer and tutor interaction, either face to face or through electronic communication. Self-study readings supported by in-class and online discussions hosted through the VLE will develop skills as independent learners (LO 1-4). Formative feedback in online quizzes will encourage independent learning through data collection, analysis, synthesis, as well as skills in developing sound argument (LO 1-4). The lecture programme will be enhanced by material from guest speakers and will be made available online. The material for the lab-based practical sessions will be made available online with a support forum
|
Formative assessment will be provided during tutorial and lab-based practical sessions at the face to face monthly meetings and/ or online forum. There will also be a series of online quizzes that will give a formative check of progress. The main summative assessment will comprise one practical coursework worth 100% of the final mark (covering LOs 1 - 4).
