This module is designed to empower students with the capability to explore and master an array of tools and systems integral to the disciplines of physical and communication design. Students will engage with both traditional and contemporary tools, exploring their potential and limitations. This exploration will be supported by workshops and reflection, allowing students to make informed decisions in their design processes.

What does it mean to make literature new? What forms and reformations have offered starting points for rethinking literary convention? In this module, you will explore the revolutions, innovations, and boundary-crossings that have taken place in literature in English when writers have grappled with these questions across the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. Each week, you will explore two texts, often from distinct literary contexts, that take a specific approach to experiment - from metafiction and documentary, from collage to life-writing, from chance to mythic structure. You will be encouraged to make connections across these texts, and to try out some literary experiments of your own as you understand what techniques or orthodoxies writers have revisited and rethought. In the two assessments for this module, you will acquire the skills to write about complex literary forms, to think through the aesthetic terms that can best describe modern and contemporary writing, and have the option of trying out and reflecting on your own creative writing experiments.

This module will engage you with prehistoric societies and their available economic options through the active reconstruction and evaluation of their technologies. Knapped stone is the oldest-known surviving technology, and persisted until the 1950s, when Norfolk flintknappers were still making gunflints for export. Ground/polished stone technology is intermittently present from 40,000 years ago. We have evidence for the working of wood from about 400,000 years ago, while the earliest sculpted bone/antler tools are some 100,000 years old. Ceramic technology can be traced back to 40,000 years ago (the earliest pottery vessels are 20,000 years old). Textiles and worked plant fibres can be traced back some 30,000 years. The use of metals can be seen from perhaps 7000 years ago in some places. This module investigates how and why artefacts in these materials might have been made: the social, economic and symbolic contexts for their production, and how to distinguish their various functions. To answer these questions, the basic concepts and current classificatory schemes will be introduced and examined through practical, in-depth, analysis of objects, assemblages and reconstructive techniques. You will be able to compare results from archaeological assemblages with your experience of reconstructing responses to materials used in prehistory, using experimental production and use, and the ethnographic literature. You will be encouraged to think carefully about how prehistoric technologies can be created, learnt and used through the writing of a project proposal as one of your assignments. This project will allow you to combine practical knowledge of prehistoric artefact manufacture, function and social context with communication of key findings to an interested non- specialist audience, which will culminate in a written project report. You will be able to explore how prehistoric technologies reflect the cognitive, behavioural, economic and technological contexts of the societies that produced them. The “public engagement” aspects of your experimental research will give you important experience of how to communicate often complex processes to non-specialist audiences, which is assuming an increasing academic importance (for grant-awarding bodies, publication of scientific papers, and for the introduction of prehistory to the National Curriculum).

This is a compulsory module for students in Part 2 of BSc and MSci Audiology to provide background knowledge and specific skills required for undertaking research projects, such as in Part 3 (FEEG3003) and Part 4 (AUDI6001).

This module will introduce students to experimental methods in economics. Emphasis will be on the methodology, in particular, statistical techniques necessary for establishing causality and valid inference, non-parametric and other useful non-standard statistical tests for experimental data, formal analysis of how scientific knowledge accumulates, in particular with respect to replication and meta-analysis.
