Teaching, Learning and Assessment
Acquisition of knowledge and skills is achieved through a broad range of teaching methods including lectures, tutorials, practical sessions, laboratory work, 'real-world' business issue and international and national case studies. Intellectual skills are developed through practical (case study or 'real world') project work, tutorial work and coursework assignments. Open ended practical and project work is designed to permit students to demonstrate achievement of all learning outcomes. Practical skills are developed in a co-ordinated and progressive manner throughout the three levels of the programme. In the lower levels attention is focused on the acquisition of basic skills, whilst at the higher levels more advanced are introduced. Transferable skills are generally incorporated within modules and related to relevant assessments as appropriate. Assessment methods are specified in each module handbook but include unseen examination, coursework assignments, portfolios and presentations. In the final year, students prepare a project / dissertation report. Throughout, the learner is encouraged to undertake independent reading both to supplement and consolidate what is being taught / learnt and to broaden their individual knowledge and understanding of the subject.
