Some of this module’s study materials are online. These materials consist of pages of text with images, audio/video clips of 1-5 minutes (all with transcripts/subtitles), diagrams, interactive media, animations, and multiple-choice self-assessed quizzes. They also include links to external resources, online forums, and online tutorial rooms. We provide printed materials for some module content, with the exception of interactive online materials and tutorials.
This module includes online tutorials. Where possible, recordings of online tutorials will be made available to students. Although not compulsory, tutorials will help you consolidate your learning and are highly recommended.
This module has Tutor-Marked Assignments (TMAs), which must be submitted online via the OU electronic TMA system, and interactive computer-marked assignments, which can also be completed online.
You will receive feedback from your tutor on your submitted 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.
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.
