Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
LOs 1-4: 2 hour lecture per week and one hour weekly tutorials. Guided weekly tutorial preparation (reading, exercises and/or questions) to enable productive debates to take place in tutorials. These debates will underpin the three formatively assessed persuasive essays, which will then relate to the summative examination questions. Additional self-study materials will be provided to develop thorough understanding through analytical and critical thinking. Guided revision schedule.
|
The module will be assessed formatively through 3 persuasive essays (1000 words each), relating to the three main topics covered in the module, namely, social cognition (LO2), intergroup processes (LO3) and close relationships (LO4).
|
Summative assessment shall comprise of 3 multiple-choice in-class test (30%) and a centrally timed examination (70%). The multiple-choice test will consist of 3 [45-50 minute] in-class tests to take place after each block of 3 lectures and tutorials (note that there are 3 main blocks in the module each covering a specific area/subject in social psychology – i.e., social cognition, group processes and intimate relations). Each in-class multiple-choice test will be comprised of 20 questions based on the content of the 3 lectures and tutorials forming a block.
