This module will be delivered via one hour lecture and two hours practical per week over 15 weeks. Students may be required to access material via blackboard in advance of the lecture and practicals to encourage active learning. Group and peer learning will be facilitated during the preparation of assignments, presentations and practicals. Any course-related issues or questions that my arise will be discussed at lectures and practicals. Course lecture summaries, course calendar, announcements and other course related material will be available on Blackboard, a virtual learning environment. Digital resources will be used as practicable. The practical component will allow students to
-develop the required technical competencies, attitudes and behaviours
-develop problem solving abilities and group skills
-promote deep learning via application of prior knowledge to a problem and analysis of results thus generating new knowledge
