Teaching and learning methods
Students perform eight practical activities in the teaching laboratories over Semesters 1 and 2. These form the basis of one outline report, five written laboratory reports and two face to face oral examination/interviews, which are submitted according to a personalised timetable. Marked reports carry individualised feedback. The unit is supported by a Blackboard site containing generic information and including a student discussion forum for each activity. Lectures provide additional coverage of theory, data analysis, and health and safety.
