Input

Input sessions follow the timetable provided here but may be adapted to a particular time of year or local circumstances. Input will preceed Assessment and TP requirements and a certain amount of self study is expected beyond input in order to consolidate knowledge. Input is about one third of the course time and there will be tutors for you to resort to 100% of the course time

Assessment

The assessment consists of a variety of elements, coursework, observations, peer/microteaching all play a role but there are two formal elements: The TPs and the 4 written tasks:

·         Focus on the Learner

·         Skills Related Tasks

·         Language Related Tasks

·         Lessons from the Classroom

 

Assignments are meant to be practical but should reflect a lot of background reading, so should TPs and both can be resubmitted and tutors will help you in the drafitng stage

 

They all need to be around 1000 words - the total written work in words should be between 3000-6000 words.
