Modules use formative and summative assessment so that you can progress through a module in a structured and constructive way and build knowledge for practice in a coherent and logical way. Formative assessments are designed so that feedback on your performance is provided before the submission of the final, summative assessment, and will occur regularly to inform your progress and performance. Formative work does not contribute to the final module mark or the credit awarded. Formative tasks and assessments will feature in all modules and provide you with further learning opportunities, alongside skill development, for example non-graded presentation skills, delivery and reflection.

A varied diet of summative assessment methods will be utilised to prepare you for further academic study and professional practice, reflecting the multi-disciplinary nature of this programme and the increasing demand for employment-ready graduates. Assessment methods are specified in each module guide and will include:

• Academic essays and reports
• Projects
• Exams
• Reflective reports
• Presentations (individual and group)
• Practical skills assessments
• Data analysis and interpretation
• Portfolios research project
  Portfolios may comprise several pieces of work which together provide evidence of learning and demonstrate achievement of learning outcomes in a variety of modes. For example, written pieces as well as video recordings, practical activities or presentations, PowerPoint slides, a series of reflections, and online discussions are just some of the ways you may evidence your learning. Learning and Teaching Assessment (LTA) approaches will be continually evaluated and improved upon using module evaluations, student feedback, peer review of teaching, and module development sessions. These will ensure an enhanced student learning experience and continuing professional development of the academic team to maintain best practice in Learning, Teaching and Assessment.
