This module will enable Paramedics working in a variety of settings to develop person-centred and reflective approaches to supporting and assessing learning in practice.
Additional Information:This module will enable students to explore how to facilitate lifelong learning in others by developing their mentoring, teaching and assessing skills in the urgent and emergency care setting. The assessment will give students the opportunity to reflect on specific aspects of practice education in terms of mentoring, teaching and assessing. The reflections will take account of the students experiences and focus on a reflective cycle leading to further development.
The module will be delivered as a Optional Module of the BSc (Hons) Paramedicine.
The module will be delivered as a CPD Programme or form part of the BSc (Hons) Paramedicine. There is no PSRB accreditation for the CPD. The subject benchmark statement is included for the BSc (Hons) Paramedic Science.
The following applies to the CPD programme:
1. The programme has taken account of the appropriate levels of the Frameworks for Higher Education Qualifications of UK Degree-Awarding Bodies (FHEQ) and is aligned to level 6 descriptors. This is reflected in the module learning outcomes.
2. The module involves online completion with no attendance. However, this is offered via tutorials and a range of Library & IT learning support tools. The module is part time with a written assessment submission of a portfolio.
3. The criteria for admission to the CPD requires that candidates are currently registered with the HCPC as a Paramedic.
