Assessment methods are designed not only to grade performance but to
motivate learners and influence their learning strategies.
Formative feedback will be offered for contributory assessments and other
activities that take place during the course of the module. Also, inter-
sessional tasks which students will be asked to undertake will be reflective
not only of the nature of the examination questions but also of real
workplace scenarios in order to enhance their professional skills.
Formative feedback will focus on ways of improving work and will typically
be offered in a number of ways appropriate for the kind of task undertaken
by the student, including:
• In person, either individually, or collectively during seminars, workshops,
or tutorials.
• Via personal email

Assessment strategies are devised on a course by course basis according to the nature of the material to be covered, and can include anything from in-class quizzes and exams to individual or group projects, essays and case studies.
