| Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
Learning and teaching : This is based on lectures and directed study to establish a framework of knowledge which the students apply through case study and class exercises in tutorial situations. The latter are based on students actively working in groups and as individuals to research and analyse case study situations and develop and present appropriate solutions to peers and staff. Embedding employability / PDP/ scholarship skills: Employability is developed through group working on cases studies and class exercises and making audio visual presentations to peers and staff. PDP is enhanced through student reflection on their work and capabilities in the group working and class exercise situations. Scholarship skills are developed through the need to research and evaluate academic literature in the case study and class exercise situations.Assessment: Formative assessment is provided to all students throughout the module delivery on their work in the tutorial class exercise situations. Summative assessment is through formal individual case study assignment and examination. Case study assignment (40%) requires students to analyse, assess, develop and critically reflect on solutions to operations management problems while examination (60%) also requires this across a wider and broader range of operations management topics. Both forms of Summative assessment cover all learning outcomes. Research / teaching linkages: Students are exposed to the latest development in the subject matter as part of the learning process and are required to access research papers etc as part of their tutorial case study and class exercise group work. Staffs are currently active in research and knowledge transfer activities relevant to the module content. Supporting equality and diversity: Module content can and will be represented as broad based and applicable to all organisations – service, manufacturing and public and private sector.
