Teaching, Learning and Assessment Approach
Learners are provided with clear and transparent criteria for assessment and readiness to advance and the provision of on-going, effective feedback is a foundational value. A variety of learning strategies are embedded in courses and assignments, to ensure that learners have many opportunities to learn and succeed.
Learners in this program will experience a variety of teaching practices including lectures, labs and field-work – many augmented by course web-sites where assignments, readings and handouts are posted. Instructors are committed to excellence in education and professional practice and you will experience some innovative and interesting learning activities and assessments. There is a practical application of knowledge and skills in courses as well as team based integrated projects and a capstone applied research project.
