Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
Learning and teaching methods and their aligment to LOsThis module will introduce and build on your existing research skills, taking a more critical stance of the approaches adopted in academic and business research. Core reading and activities are used throughout the module, with learning focussing on the workshops, supported by moodle. Embedding employability/PDP/scholarship skillsBased on elements of the Chartered Management Institute's core management skills, the material introduced within the module will permit you to critically analyse a range of situations and deploy the skills acquired to make more informed choices and decisions. The synthesis and evaluation of data and information, together with skills to communicate effectively, ensures that these transferable skills represent a sound basis for personal and professional development.Research/Teaching LinkagesLecturers involved in the module are involved in scholarly activity and research in their specialist field and feed this experience into the online materials. The workshop materials are underpinned by relevant research, with recommended reading from appropriate textbooks or articles as detailed in the moodle materials. Supporting equality and diversity; internationalisationThis module is delivered via workshops and moodle support, being designed in line with accessibility guidelines. All students have access to materials with scenarios relating to ethical considerations incorporating equality and diversity issues. Workshops, online materials are integral to the module and support your learning and development.

The outline research template will be formatively assessed and is designed to allow the early allocation of supervisors. In doing so, supervisors will provide (formative) feedback on the outline research template and assist you in producing the more substantive Research Proposal.
|
The Research Proposal will be summatively assessed and should detail the area of investigation, aim and objectives, initial literature review, proposed research approach and planned timescale of your subsequent MBA project
