Accessibility statementMost of this module’s study materials are online. Online materials are composed of pages of text with images, audio/video clips (all with transcripts/subtitles); diagrams; interactive media; animations; and multiple-choice self-assessed quizzes. Online materials also include links to external resources, online forums and online tutorial rooms.
This module provides online tutorials. Although not compulsory, tutorials will help you consolidate your learning.
You’ll be encouraged to work with other students, but we do not assess this. This includes looking at and commenting on others’ work and reflecting on others’ comments on your work.
The study materials contain some diagrams/graphs/photographs. We provide descriptions for all essential figures.
You will be required to search for, and make use of, third-party material online and we assess this.
This module has tutor-marked assignments and an end-of-module assessment in the form of a dissertation.
You’ll receive feedback from your tutor on your tutor-marked assignments (TMAs). This will help you to reflect on your TMA performance. You should refer to it to help you prepare for your next assignment. This feed-forward approach is particularly important for the dissertation itself.
We structure all University modules to a set timetable and you’ll need time-management skills to keep your studies on track. We’ll support you in developing these skills.
