Student Activity (Notional Equivalent Study Hours (NESH)) |
Mode of activity | Learning & Teaching Activity | NESH (Study Hours) | NESH Description |
Face To Face | Lecture | 20 | Lectures will cover the major areas of advanced cardiovascular, skeletal muscle, immune system and cellular physiology, and the effects of exercise on cells and their subsequent adaptations to exercise training/physical inactivity. |
Face To Face | Tutorial | 10 | Tutorials will be held to help you critically appraise literature, and to understand specific cell signaling pathways important to exercise physiology (nitric oxide pathway, protein synthesis/breakdown pathways). You will be given example situations (exercise trials/populations), and asked to describe specific physiological changes to such situations, from organ, down to cellular level. |
Face To Face | Practical classes and workshops | 15 | Practicals will support your learning in these main topics that are assessed, and practical sessions will involve answering particular research questions, and you yourself designing the experiments to answer the research question(s). |
Online | GROUPIND_STUDY | 153 | Throughout the trimester, you are expected to structure in time to reflect upon the learning you have undertaken in your scheduled sessions and to complete your essential reading. You are encouraged to read more widely around the topics you are studying and engage in Moodle activities and resources. You will need to ensure that you have sufficient time to prepare and plan for your assessment tasks. |
Face To Face | CLASS TEST | 2 | One of the summative assessments will be an oral assessment in the form of a dialogue. The knowledge and skills you have learned throughout the module will be explored through dialogue with examiners. |
