1st attempt: 1 two-hour examination (70%) and 1 essay (30%). Resit: 1 two-hour examination (100%).
A compulsory pre-seen question in the examination paper, to be attempted during the examination. A practice exam held in the seventh week of the semester. On a less formal basis, verbal feedback is given during tutorial discussions.
The assessment in para. 1 above is marked by the student's tutor and returned with detailed written comments within 2 weeks of submission. For the practice exam mentioned in para 2, written feedback comments are put on each script, supplemented by a lecture hour which goes over all aspects of the exam performance. The Course Coordinator organises appointments to see all candidates who did particularly poorly,and also extends a general invitation to any member of the class who wishes to discuss his or her performance.
