Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
This weekly class will combine 1 hour of lectures with one hour of tutorials and workshops (covering LO 1-5). This module will engage students in reporting activities (LO 1-5). Students will analyse a range of topics relevant to a wide audience and will gain experience in political and public affair reporting (LO 1-5). As a practice based module the main learning method is experiential learning.
|
You will undertake both formative and summative assessments. Formative assessment will be provided in class through feedback from the tutor and regular peer review. This formative feedback will inform your first summative assessment.
|
Your first summative assessment of 1500 words will require you to demonstrate policy and political newsgathering and knowledge (LO 1, 3,4). The second summative assessment, an essay also totalling 1500 words, will allow you to demonstrate a critical understanding of the issues surrounding public affairs for journalists. (LO 2-5)
