Course Details – Assessment Method
The course provides a number of contact teaching and assessment hours (lectures, tutorials, laboratory work, projects, examinations), but you are also expected to spend time on your own, called ‘self-study’ time, to review lecture notes, prepare coursework assignments, work on projects and revise for assessments.
One module in each year of your study involves a compulsory one-week block delivery period. This intensive problem-solving week, provides you with an opportunity to focus your attention on particular problems and enhance your team-working and employability skills.
Assessments are varied and reflect the module outcomes. There are written assignments, photographic and evidence portfolios, essays, court/case reports, verbal presentations and examinations. You also have the opportunity to present evidence in our on-campus court room. Support and constructive feedback is provided by academic members of staff to help you improve in all aspects of your learning.
