Teaching Methods
  1. Teaching will be based on a hybrid-flexible approach. Instructor-led face-to-face learning is combined with online learning in a flexible course structure that gives students the option of attending sessions in the classroom, participating online, or doing both.
  2. All activities require active student participation in their own learning.
  3. Learning delivery methods and available resources will be selected to ensure constructive alignment with course content, learning outcomes and assessment criteria.
  4. Students will be taught using a mixture of guidance, self-study, and lecture material. Topics will be introduced in a series of weekly lectures. The guidance sessions will be directed practical exercises and reading in which students can explore topics with support from a teacher. This material will also require students to self-manage their time to ensure tasks are completed and the theory is fully understood. This will allow the students to fully engage with lectures and with their peers.
