Learning, Teaching and Assessment (LTA) Approach: |
LTA approach Learning & teaching methods including their alignment to LOs:The module is taught in a series of lectures, tutorial activities and directed self-managed study. These provide students with the appropriate content (definitions, frameworks, models, theories etc.) which then links to a wide range of internationally diverse case studies and examples, designed to enhance learning and develop insight into the phenomena of sport event tourism. Embedding of employability/PDP/scholarship skills: LOs require students to read, research (directed paper based and web based publications and approved databases) and give both a presentation (oral) and a written report. An assessment workshop will also cover key points for succeeding with both types of submission. Oral presentation skills and written presentation skills will be extended through the formative and summative assessment. In collecting, evaluating and summarising relevant information for the second assessment students also have the opportunity to consider creative solutions to the bid proposal and the practical application of taught theory and frameworks. Research/teaching linkagesIncorporating professional and up-to-date research on the SET alongside case study examples, students are encouraged to critically review theory and frameworks within the specific and wider subject area and are encouraged to investigate and understand current and future trends which may impact on the area of SET. Supporting equality and diversityThe learning materials used will be available on Moodle provided by Napier University to support the needs of many learning styles. The use of a wide range of case studies and examples encourages diversity and inclusivity within the classroom as well as offering an international perspective for the module overall. Internationalisation.Both case examples and readings allow for the module to be internationally focused, as you might expect given the topic. The use of a wide variety of international examples offers the students a global view of the industries which make up Sport event tourism and students will be encouraged to engage with international examples within assignments and tutorial sessions to encourage a more international view point throughout the module.

Following on from the lecture on event impacts, students will undertake formative assessment linking with LO1 & 2 and will work in their groups to provide a 5 minute overview of their presentation, with a particular focus on the impacts that can be experienced in relation to their chosen event (Olympic Games, FIFA world cup etc.). Feedback will be given to groups which can then be taken forward for the summative presentation in week 7. Support and guidance on group work will also be given at this point, if required.

Assessment 1: (addresses LO1, 2 & 5) Group presentation (40%): 20 Minute – Week 7 Student groups will select an instance of a Mega Sporting Event and identify how the frameworks/typologies identified in LO1 and event impacts (LO2) assist in a better understanding of the sport event tourism offering. Linking with LO5, students will look to identify future trends which will affect further instances of their specific MSE. Assessment 2: (addresses LO 3, & 4) Individual report (2500): (60%) Appraisal of potential sport event tourism offering – Week 13 Students will write a proposal on an sporting event tourism destination of their choice designed to address LO3 & LO4, and provide a thorough investigation of the Sport event and the sports tourism offering identified as the focus of the piece.
