Working With Things: the analysis of material culture

Things, both made and found, are a key source of information on human social worlds past and present. This module builds upon the introduction to the archaeology and anthropology of things/objects/artefacts/material culture provided in the Year 1 module ‘Thinking Through Things’ by developing skills in the observation, recording, analysis and presentation of artefacts. Through guiding lectures and practical sessions, we will cover: how to correctly observe and ‘read’ artefacts, their manufacture, use and material properties; matters of classification and characterisation; the collection and curation of artefact data; the use of formal analytical techniques; and written and graphic presentation of artefact reports. Throughout, attention will be paid to the ways, as archaeologists and anthropologists, we move from object to data, to the creation of interpretations about object worlds.

Workplace Based Assessment (Final)

This module is a synoptic assessment module incorporating all previous modules in the programme and together with the other 3 assessment modules constitutes ‘Finals’. This module comprises Workplace Based Assessment (WpBA) component of Finals.

This includes the Assessment of Clinical Competence (ACC) assessments conducted during each of the following modules: Obstetrics & Gynaecology / Sexual health, Child Health, Psychiatry, Medicine, Primary Medical Care, and Surgery). For students who do not gain exemption in their in-course ACCs, the module also incorporates the assessment during the ACCs at ‘Finals’ along with revision sessions that helps prepare students for this assessment.
In addition, the module includes evidence of certification of competence in a range of Practical Procedures which also includes completion of Intermediate Life Support (ILS) training demonstrating competence in ILS procedures.

The BM programmes are highly contextualised and integrated programmes in which the application of knowledge and understanding, clinical skills and professional practice applicable to medicine are learned through a range of modules none of which are standalone modules and therefore this module should be recognised by teachers and students alike as part of the whole programme. The final year WpBA module in BM final year is studied along with along with 3 other assessment modules (Applied Knowledge Assessment, CPSA, and Data Interpretation and Summarisation. The emphasis of the assessments for each of the modules aligns with the focus of learning for that module, however the integrated nature of the course means that there will undoubtedly be overlap and aspects of the assessment in each module will draw upon learning from modules studied in earlier years as well as modules studied in that year. The final year WpBA module has been purposely designed to assess learning outcomes covered in any of the clinical modules within the programme.

World Dramas

In this module, you will learn how to approach dramatic texts in a way that takes into consideration their place in the world as a complex political, economic, and cultural network. We will focus on questions such as:

• What is the difference between reading a play and watching a play?
• How do playwrights adapt popular stories and how do they create new work designed specifically for stage?
• How can film accommodate texts written for live performance?
• How will we approach a play differently if we take the world, rather than a community or a nation-specific setting, as its context?
• How can our engagement with non-Western dramas help us reconsider our ways of seeing, judging and living in the world we know?

This module will explore some of the most important ideas behind the development of theatre as an art form, both in English-speaking countries and beyond. It will enable you to understand the basic principles of dramatic composition, such as narrative, style, and structure, and it will introduce you to critical and theoretical methods for analysing dramatic texts on page, on stage, and on screen.

Writing Queerness

Once upon a time, no one called themselves queer; now it names everything from a kind of person to a type of weather. Queerness seems necessary, ubiquitous, paradoxical – but why? Ranging from the eighteenth century to the present day, this module will explore the different acts of writing that have not simply expressed queerness, but brought it into being: trial records, medical case studies, autobiographies, diaries, letters, speculative fictions, poetic fragments, and more. Travelling from the molly houses of Georgian England to the online fan forums of our digital age, studying these different genres will open up some of the key questions in the study of sexuality: the nature of identity, the origins of desire, and why we think we have a ‘sexuality’ in the first place. By means of a wide-ranging study of the theory and practice of writing sexuality, this module will enable students to develop their own approach to writing queerness, in academic essays, research project reports, or creative writing portfolios.
