DESIGN MATTERS BUSINESS OF DESIGN (20 CREDITS) (option)

This module is designed to introduce and develop students’ awareness of market and audience issues relating to design practice. The module will enable students to develop a knowledge and understanding of contemporary marketing issues especially focusing on issues of consumer behaviour and market segmentation and advanced understanding of teamwork using appropriate models. High level literacy skills will be used in writing and researching for this module.

The content will be delivered through lectures, external activities and VLE. Practical activities related to journal search, research and recording will be important. 

Learning outcomes have been mapped against FHEQ and QAA Business and Management and Art & Design benchmarks together with Teesside guidance.

Formative assessment will be feedback on collaborative learning activities modulated through VLE and feedback on essay research and activity planning. A “bridging assessment” between levels 5 and six namely a dissertation proposal will be formatively assessed.

Summative assessment will be via group Presentation and essay.

This course is designed to enable students to demonstrate both knowledge and understanding of design considerations in a fast changing industry. The ability to to apply, analyse and evaluate various designs will be developed using various methods of learning.

This unit gives learners an understanding of how specifications are used to realise design solutions and of the

importance of ‘buildability’ and ‘sustainability’. Learners will gain knowledge of how construction materials fail

in use and to prevent these failures, and develop effective drawing skills.

Module Focus

This module offers the opportunity to investigate the professional role and continuous development of a teacher/trainer, and explore a range of issues that impact on professionalism. It will return to ideas about tutor roles and specifically highlight defining aspects of that role that go beyond the classroom.

The module presents a coherent approach to the theoretical and pedagogical understanding of science and its professional application. The key elements of scientific investigation outside the classroom and its nature of procedural and conceptual understandings are underpinned by contemporary assessment methods and pedagogy.  Effective outdoor science education is examined throughout the programme of lectures, workshops, seminars and tutorials.

It will enable students to develop their understanding of the philosophical and theoretical principles which underpin science education in the outdoor learning environment.  It will allow them to understand the nature and application of scientific procedure and relate this understanding to their own learning and, if appropriate, their own experience in educational contexts.

The content will enable students to systematically extend their understanding of the nature and scope of science, including the roles of procedural and conceptual knowledge. Students will develop their theoretical and pedagogical understanding of science, the outdoor environment, enquiry based learning and its professional application.

Students will develop a broad understanding of assessment in science education and its methods of application in line with the national educational strategies.

It will enable the student to examine and explore the role of science in natural and man-made environments with regard to teaching and education.

20 Credit, Stage 2 module: this module builds on the knowledge and skills gained in stage 1, supporting students to apply develomental theory to practice. 

Welcome

This module will provide you with an introduction to nutrition with a focus on defining and understanding the relationship between nutrition, exercise and health.

This module is designed to introduce students to the concept of 'disaster and emergency planning' as it effects the public services. It will examine what emergency planning processes take place and how different agencies work in partnership to problem solve. The module will use case studies to demonstrate how it works in practise.

This module aims to enable students to plan, organise and execute an independent study in an identified area of educational research related to the student’s specialist subject. In order to do this they will need to apply research skills in context and to collect data through: enquiry, observation or investigation, leading to analysis and interpretation of information within the written study. By undertaking this process students willunderstand the value and relevance of educational research in the development of educational practices.

Students will work independently, to demonstrate the ability to plan, implement and evaluate an empirical investigation that integrates concepts, theories, knowledge and skills encountered on the degree. However, this online unit is designed to equip students with some initial key information which enable them to begin the research and writing process.
