In line with our commitment to deliberate practice, part way through the module, students will undertake formative assessment, presenting their knowledge and understanding and reflecting on their learning, and will be given feedback to inform their assessment. Tutorials will be provided to support team work.
The students are expected to also undertake a minimum of 100 hours of professional practice, including a collaborative project with students from other LIPA degrees. Students will be provided with regular support and guidance to help them to identify and take advantage of opportunities for professional practice. Professional practice could include collaborative projects; relevant work or voluntary experience and enterprise activities
