Assessment method
A wide range of skills are developed and assessed throughout this programme including communication, collaboration, problem solving and critical thinking. Our approach to assessment combines authentic and conventional academic methods to ensure that you can develop a wide range of academic and transferable skills. Assessments are inclusively designed so that they enable you to contextualise your own experiences whilst allowing you to apply concepts, theories of business management. Assessment methods typically include, but are not limited to: • coursework reports, reviews and essays • examinations (closed and open book) • presentations • dissertations and projects Coursework Coursework might range from written tasks and assignments to the collation of a portfolio of evidence based around a work placement. Coursework differs from exams in that it is usually non-timed and carried out independently. Exam Exams are formal, timed written assessments, carried out in a controlled environment and overseen by one or more invigilators. They assess your grasp of the theory and underpinning knowledge related to your chosen career area. The opposite of practicals, they require you to set out your practical understanding within an academic context. Some courses have no exams – the exam/coursework ratio is outlined below. Practical Practical assessments identify your technical ability to apply theory to hands-on tasks in your chosen career area. They can be timed or non-timed and involve observation of your practical skills and competencies, either in a work-based environment or a dedicated College setting that closely resembles the workplace. Practical work-based assessments are supported and carried out by a trained assessor.
