Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
The student is required to be employed as a Graduate Apprentice based in and around Edinburgh to be eligible tocomplete this module, in this format. This module is offered in day release (GA) study mode and will be delivered during theperiod that students are attending classes from 9 am to 5 pm, one day per week. The delivery of the module is in line withnormal university delivery models. The traditional lecture materials will be delivered in a blended form using online materials,while in-class time is devoted to practical exercises, projects, or discussions. The module is designed around online andstudent-centred learning in practice with an emphasis on building a learning community. The module is introduced by aninduction workshop which introduces students to the online resources and explains the assessment process.Theoretical concepts will be delivered early in the module through standard lectures (LO1, 2, 4, 5). These concepts will then beused throughout the remainder of the module to describe other practical aspects of database design and use, thus reinforcingthe terminology and underlying principles. Practical concepts will also be introduced via lectures (LO2, 3, 4) and then followedup in practical sessions. The practical sessions will be the primary vehicle for developing students’ knowledge of SQL (LO3).Online screencasts will be used to provide examples of the use of practical techniques for database design and use and foradministrative procedures (LO2, 3, 4, 5).
|
Tutorial/practical sessions are used to provide formative feedback for students on the module. During these sessions, moduletutors assess and evaluate student performance on tasks relevant to the summative assessment, providing timely feedbackwhich supports the development of students’ capabilities.
|
Early practicals will be supported by online tutorial material which gives useful automated formative feedback to students.There is only one component in the assessment. The assessment will be focused on the students’ practical skills and theoretical knowledge (LO 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5) and will involve the students developinganswers to problems throughout the whole trimester of teaching.
