Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
Learning & Teaching methods including their alignment to LOsThe lectures are designed to set students up as effective apps developers (LO1, LO2) while the practicals are formative laboratory-based sessions, giving students hands-on tasks leading to an accumulation of skills necessary for mobile application production (LO3). Collaboration between peers and critical review will be encouraged.The module will include interactive lecture theatre events in which the student will learn to understand the academic underpinning for successful application design. (LOs 1-3)Each week students will undertake directed study including background reading on the theory and practice of apps authorship (LOs 1-3) and a guest lecture/ masterclass in which a participant in the mobile applications industry shares his/her experiences (LOs 2, 3).The module will have a Moodle presence where the module materials will be made available, including source code of completed projects.
|
The laboratory work will be a series of formative exercises, leading up to the summative assessment of the coursework (LOs 2 & 3). The coursework requires the students to produce a working application which will be partly assessed through a demonstration of their work in a format that closely reflect workplace practice.
|
The lecture theatre interactive session will be designed to challenge the students, reinforcing confidence of their ability to go on to successfully manage the summative essay-type examination (LOs 1 & 2).
