Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach:
The Advanced Games Engineering module is an opportunity for students to investigate a negotiated topic relevant to Games Technology. The general form of the module is customised by the individual learning agreement. The Learning Agreement specifies the form of learning, the learning outcomes to be achieved and the
form of assessment. The Learning Agreement is subject to approval by the module Leader.
By its nature students work on their own and have responsibility for their learning pattern. This is an opportunity for the development of independence and autonomy in learning as well as time and resource management. The work may be assessed by one or more
assignments or other form of assessment as agreed within the Learning Agreement.
