Teaching Contact Hours 

We understand that everyone learns differently, so each of our courses will consist of structured teaching sessions, which includes:
  • On campus lectures, seminars and workshops
  • Group work
  • Self-directed learning

Guided and independent study:

Throughout your studies, you will be expected to spend time in guided and independent study to make up the required study hours per module. You’ll be digging deeper into topics, review what you’ve learned and complete assignments. This can be completed around your personal commitments. As you progress through your studies, you’ll spend more time in independent study.

Assessment 

This course will be assessed using a variety of methods which will vary depending upon the module.
 
Assessment methods include:
  • individual coursework
  • group coursework
  • exams
  • tests
  • essays
  • presentations
  • reports
  • projects
  • core assessments (these are pass/fail and can be attempted multiple times)
The Coventry University Group assessment strategy ensures that our courses are fairly assessed and allows us to monitor student progression towards achieving the intended learning outcomes.
