Assessment methods
A range of assessment methods are used across the programme. Assessments relate directly to learning outcomes and one assessment tends to cover more than one learning outcome. In designing and deciding upon an assessment format for a module the following factors have been considered:
The module learning outcomes and their level, with particular emphasis on the student’s ability to analyse and communicate information from:
module content
learned knowledge from other areas/qualifications
experience
the implementation of systematic information-seeking strategies
Encouraging students to apply their skills to specific problems
Approaching problems in a systematic way and employing test approaches to resolve them
Assessment performance criteria, as communicated to the student
The validity and reliability of the assessment methods, which are monitored by module leaders and programme teams
Time constraints (for students and staff) and the need to ensure consistency
The use of a range of strategies through which a student can demonstrate what they know
Assignment submissions are divided across the academic year where possible, however there are certain times of the year where students can expect ‘busy’ periods (e.g. end of semester). An assessment matrix is designed early in the academic year and distributed to students. Some assessments will include some formative assessment opportunities to gauge an idea on where students are working towards, offering formative feedback to develop.
