Learning Outcomes
Overview of Assessment
Students must demonstrate an understanding of all elements of a particular competency to be deemed competent. Assessment methods have been designed to measure achievements of each competency in a flexible manner. Assessments will incorporate a variety of methods: online exercises and activities, group work and an in-class test. Due to the complex nature of this competency, students may be required to demonstrate competency in any element more than once. Students are advised that they are likely to be asked to personally demonstrate their assessment work to their teacher to ensure that the relevant competency standards are being met. In addition to the assessments, formative feedback is provided to the students throughout the duration of the course
Learning activities will include class-based discussions, exercises, small group work, online activities, reading and reflection on various activities, together with independent and group research in order to develop competency including the underpinning skills and knowledge.
