TEACHING & LEARNING

LEARNING, TEACHING AND ASSESSMENT METHODS

The objective of the course is to develop knowledge, skills and analytical ability of students to enable them to enter a successful career in business organisations. The general approach to the learning process involves:

» Lectures

» Workshops

» Self-study and directed research

The assessment strategy is designed to ensure the learning outcome are achieved and that there is progressive development of knowledge and skill.

The assessment strategy is designed to ensure that learning outcomes are achieved, and there is progressive development of knowledge and skills.

At level 4, students are expected to describe, explain and review concepts, theories and models. At level 5, students apply, analyse and evaluate; and at level 6, independent learning is more embedded, and students develop a depth of understanding via critical analysis and evaluation. The assessment strategies within the specialist modules provide more challenging opportunities for developing critical analysis and evaluation through problem-solving, case studies and the dissertation.

Formative assessment is a key feature of the programme enabling early feedback to be given on progress and to help

students improve performance. Assessment at all levels is by coursework, practical tasks and examination, with some modules being assessed by 100% coursework. The course is designed to give students the opportunities to undertake work-based learning and enterprise activities which can form part of the learning and assessment of the programme.

At Level 6, students may choose to undertake one of the following research-based options (Normally students at partner colleges will not study these options alongside other optional modules):

» Dissertation

» Consultancy Project

» Negotiated Work-Based Learning

The dissertation is a research project which is based on a topic to be investigated, and the outcome is likely to answer a set of research questions. The dissertation is expected to be submitted in the form of a thesis. Formative feedback is provided by regular discussions with the dissertation supervisor and through comments received on draft chapters.

The consultancy project is based on a business problem to be solved or an opportunity to be explored. The outcome of a consultancy project is likely to be solution(s) identified and/or implemented by the student. The final outcome is submitted in the form of a consultancy report. This report will explain and justify the steps taken throughout the project and the outcomes achieved. On-going formative feedback will be provided throughout by the organisational contact/sponsor as well as by the university tutor.

The Negotiated Work Based project is a means to address a learning and development issue rather than solving a problem or exploring a research question. The outcome will primarily be learning gained, and practices improved. The final report is likely to revolve around a reflective learning process, explaining, justifying and analysing learning projects. For example, it could follow an experiential learning cycle several times to critique and evaluate learning gained from various experiences. Formative feedback will be gained from organisational contacts as well as university tutors – with the emphasis throughout being learning achieved rather than tasks achieved.

Entry Requirements

Students will be expected to have passed in at least 5 GCSE/GCE subjects, of which two must be Advanced Level or equivalent (BTEC National, GNVQ Level 3 at Merit, International Baccalaureate, Abitur etc.), GCSE passes in Mathematics and English Language, or equivalent, at grade C or above. All applicants will be expected to have a UCAS Tariff score of 200-240. International students will be expected to have an IELTS score of 6.0, with a minimum of 5.5 scores in all areas.

Mature students without formal qualifications, but with appropriate experience, may be admitted to the course. This is in-line with the university’s admission statement regarding mature students.

For students progressing by an entry with advanced standing to

Progression Routes on Completion

TEACHING & LEARNING

LEARNING, TEACHING AND ASSESSMENT METHODS TO ACHIEVE THE PROGRAMME LEARNING OUTCOMES:

The structure of the programme runs across 12-15 months (depending on when a particular cohort start) with 180 credits being attained over this period.

Students study 8 modules which carry 15 credits and a final self-managed learning module (dissertation) which carries 60 credits.

Students study four concurrent modules (MB701, MB702, MB703 and MB704) in Part 1 (Semester 1) and four concurrent modules (MB705, MB706, MB707 and MB708) in Part 2 (Semester 2). Personal development and research skills are taught in both semesters but receive a greater focus in Part 2. This builds up to Part 3, which consists of the self-managed learning module: Dissertation.

Class sessions comprise of a range of activities including interactive lectures, discussions, group work, presentations and business simulation games. These relate to topics that are set in a scheme of work for each module. Learning outcomes for the programme and specific modules are applied to the content under discussion at each session. A consistent approach in this is the relationship of theory to practice. Students are introduced to theories and content; discussion applies this to their experience and to case studies. Core texts are recommended for each module.

Students are assisted in further reading by the use of Blackboard and Library databases. This provides them with continuous access to learning materials, discussion boards, wikis as well as the full range of library facilities.

Throughout the programme, the objective is to enhance the knowledge, skills, and analytical ability of students. Learning outcomes are met by a combination of self-study, directed research and investigation, online tutor support, and Blackboard materials as well as tutor-led sessions. Input is not limited to tutor input, though – the programme team makes regular use of guest speakers from respected organisations, and student presentations are also used to help develop personal research and reflection skills as well as learning collaboratively. All of these help to enable students to develop important personal skills needed to proceed with their careers in business organisations. The assessment tasks include individual assignments, examinations, Time Constrained Assessment, case study analysis, personal presentations and postings to online discussion for a combination designed to assess and meet the stated aims and the required learning outcomes.

The dissertation and project modules have a regular discussion forum which will be facilitated by the tutor to check

understanding, give formative feedback and allow peer-assisted learning. Even though the dissertation and projects are highly individual pieces of work, some students benefit from working in action learning sets – and these will be facilitated by the tutors in addition to individual supervision meetings. These allow for peer-to-peer learning as well as a peer-to-peer formative assessment. Such interactive activities help students to gain from different perspectives as well as develop their abilities to work collaboratively in a multi-cultural group.

The assessment strategy is designed to ensure that learning outcomes are achieved and that there is a development of knowledge and skills. Independent learning is embedded within the programme, and students develop a depth of understanding via synthesis, critical analysis and evaluation. Assessments are by coursework and examination/TCA with some modules being assessed by coursework only. Coursework takes several forms, such as an individual report, individual presentation, or reflective portfolio. The importance of the notion of learning from personal reflection is emphasised by the inclusion of the need for personal reflection in many of the assessments; even though not necessarily contributing to the mark awarded, the team believes that such reflective skills are an important habit to develop. Such assessment tasks, then, help to prepare students for similar challenges in their careers – with managers at all levels and in all types of organisations increasingly needing to be able to communicate ideas in different ways: face-to-face or remotely, with or without planning time, solo or with colleagues.

Formative assessment is provided for in each module – students learn from feedforward as well as feedback. Such support is provided in a number of different ways, such as: face-to-face in-class student discussions with tutors or peers, formative assessments, tutor guidance, and comment on draft work. The programme team also offers remote help through, for example, Skype or similar.

Assessment loads across the programme are monitored carefully to avoid imbalance or too many instances of clusters – although this latter point cannot be totally avoided given the nature of timetabled study. The programme team work to ensure that assessments are spread and are equivalent sizes such as word counts.

What are the entry requirements?

This information will be given on the individual course page of our main website: add link https://mrcollege.ac.uk/courses/

VISA and Immigration Information

Any immigration or visa-related questions you may have can be answered by the Student services department. More information on applying for your student visa is available on the link below: https://www.gov.uk/student-visa

What is your Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS)

You will require a Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) number in order to apply for a student visa. When you have been accepted and have an unconditional place at the College, you will be given this (after paying the deposit). A CAS cannot be issued by the College earlier than six months before the commencement of your programme, and CAS issuance typically starts four months prior to your program's start date. You don't have to get in touch with us to start the process; it will start on its own. Without having your CAS statement, you cannot schedule a visa appointment or apply for a student visa. If you have scheduled any appointments before your CAS is granted, the College cannot ensure you will obtain this in time.

How do I get my CAS?

The CAS Team will send you a CAS Contract and Data Check email with a link to a form that you must fill out (check???) and submit once you have fulfilled all the requirements of your offer and accepted your spot at the College (including paying your deposit). You won't need to request for a CAS because this will happen automatically.

We will send you a CAS statement via your contact email address once you have given us the right information and supporting documentation and we are satisfied that you fulfil the Home Office and MRC entry requirements. This statement will include your CAS number. The CAS number must be included with your visa application, even though the CAS statement is not required. We have the right to refuse a CAS if we believe that you won't be able to submit a successful visa application, if you don't fulfil MRC standards, or if you've already had a visa application denied.

Can I get a combined CAS for both Foundation and degree pathway courses (HND)?

Some students may be eligible to get a combined CAS which will allow them to apply for a VISA for both Foundation (Level 3) and Degree Pathway Course (Level 5).

How long will it take for my CAS to be issued?

Once you have firmly accepted your unconditional offer and paid your deposit (if required), the CAS process will begin automatically. The CAS will be issued within 14 working days. Check?

You will usually receive your CAS Statement 2-3 days after you return your CAS Contract and Data Check, but it can take up to 5 working days during peak periods. We would ask that if you have completed all of the above, you do not contact the CAS Team until after the 5 working days, as the volume of emails received can impact CAS issuing times. Check?

Do I need an IELTS for my visa application?

In line with Home Office guidance, the College will assess your English language competence through IELTS.

If you are coming to study for more than 6 months, you will be required to collect a Biometric Residence Permit (BRP) once you have arrived in the UK. A BRP is a card which acts as evidence of your entitlement to be in the UK. When you apply for your visa in your home country, you will be given a visa in your passport which is valid for 90 days. This allows you to travel to and enter the
