Course Details – Assessment Method
Formative assessment
Each module contains at least one piece of practice or ‘formative’ assessment for which you receive feedback. Formative assessments are developmental and do not count towards your overall module mark.
Summative assessment
As you will be able to personalise your degree by choosing elective modules to suit your needs, we cannot provide a precise break-down of your assessments. Typically, your assessment will be designed to reflect the kind of activities you may be asked to carry on in the workplace, either individually or as part of a team. For example, writing reports, analysing data, preparing strategies and presentations. You’ll also submit different types of coursework and sit written exams as part of the assessment for some modules.
Apart from receiving feedback for your formative assessment, you will also receive feedback for your coursework and practical exams, and upon request, for your written examinations.
