Course programme

Assessment

This course seeks to enable you to engage with and evaluate a range of assessment techniques. Each module carries three assessment components, typically including such tasks as essay, case study, reflective reports, individual and group presentations, peer review, action planning and evaluation of day-to-day teaching practice.

Teaching practice is integral to successful completion of the programme. You will undergo a minimum of eight teaching observations, working with tutors and mentors to identify suitable opportunities for observation, dialogic review and feedback. The planning, evaluation and feedback for each of the observations will be compiled within your teaching portfolio. Observed teaching practice forms part of the assessment in three of the four modules.

You will also maintain a professional development portfolio, which promotes personal, professional development. The components of this portfolio are aligned to module assessments and include, for example, reflective accounts, peer observations and a structured, personal development plan.
