Additional
Notes
When this module is taken by students via FDL:
- interactive tutor-led sessions will be replaced by directed learning using the
VLE
- tutorials will be by a combination of asynchronous discussion via the VLE
and telephone tutorial (or similar).
Students who successfully complete this module as a stand alone module will
be eligible for a Certificate of Achievement
It is expected that all students will undertake the formative assessment as it
is integral to the success of their summative assessment
