Course Modules

This course provides opportunities to test and develop your knowledge through informal formative assessments, which take place before formal evaluations. These assessments help you build confidence in the subject matter and refine your approach to graded assignments. While formative assessments do not count toward final marks, engaging with them is crucial for academic success, as students who neglect them often face challenges in progressing through their studies.

Formal summative assessments occur toward the end of each module and determine final grades. These assessments may include written examinations, reports, portfolios, essays, and presentations. The marks awarded in summative assessments contribute to the overall module grade, reflecting your level of understanding and academic performance.

Assessment methods are regularly reviewed and updated based on student feedback, subject advancements, and recommendations from external academic experts. This ensures that evaluation processes remain relevant, fair, and aligned with industry and academic standards.
