Learning and teaching methods

* Catalyst lectures will be delivered on key themes for the module to a mixed group of students * Academic level specific tutorial groups will explore teaching content * Tutorial discussion will be followed by academic level differentiated on-line discussion groups. There will be synchronous discussion between the level 5 student groups at Colchester and Southend campuses with a similar provision for the level 7 students * Moodle – the VLE will contain entry level content which will direct students to either Level 5 or Level 7 directed reading and support activities. There will be open access so Level 7 students primary reading can access the level 5 sections of Moodle and vice versa. * Module outcomes are academic level specific * The assessment strategy involves the same tasks but the level of critical ability required for successful completion will vary dependent on academic level. Mixture of online and classroom based learning with feedback and discussion in groups. The module delivery is largely based on classroom delivery with additional support on Moodle. A suitable acute mental health care placement should accompany this module. Learning will be supported by on-line resources to which the student will have access on and off campus. One session per week will be devoted to group tutorials within branch and academic levels. The development of skills alongside the acquisition of knowledge will occur within the workplace. Some practical tutorials will be available.
