LTA ApproachReflective learning skills are facilitated through specialist area subject guest lectures, student presentation and case study visit.Employability and PDP elements are embedded in the requirements of report and essay writing.A series of lectures provide a framework of ideas and put across key information and issues appropriate to achieving the learning outcomes; a series of seminar/workshops to consolidate the knowledge base and learning systematically through the module programme. International case studies will be used as a basis for tutorials and as examples in lectures. Self-managed reading and investigation around the syllabus: building up information, ideas and arguments on the various seminar topics covered, as well as reinforcing and extending the lecture/tutorial programme.AssessmentA variety of assessment instruments are used to provide opportunites for differing learning styles.
