Problem solve

Teaching/Learning Methods and Strategies

Cognitive skills are developed across first, second and third semester modules. The numerical and statistical components of the modules, particularly in Research Methods module, focus on problem solving, logical reasoning and data management and analysis using statistical packages. Independent enquiry, critical evaluation and interpretation, abstraction and assimilation are key elements in all modules. Self-assessment and reflection are developed by formative feedback particularly on small group presentations.

Methods of Assessment

Assessment of cognitive skills, both summative and formative, occurs in the form of course homework, oral presentations, project work and class tests.

Construct arguments and exercise problem solving skills

Teaching/Learning Methods and Strategies

Abstraction, quantitative, qualitative and evaluation skills, through theory building, manipulation, application and evaluation, are at the core of this degree programme. Consequently, these skills are built across modules and throughout the duration of the programme through interactive teaching session, traditional lecture sessions, independent reading and application of theory to practice, together with worked class examples.

Methods of Assessment

Both summative and formative assessment methods are used throughout all modules.
Summative assessment takes a variety of forms. End-of-semester class tests are used to gauge and assess understanding and the acquisition of knowledge. Cumulative assessment is also built into all modules to assess ongoing understanding. A variety of forms of cumulative assessment are employed, such as practical computer-based work and, a mixture of class tests, group and individual presentations and essays.

Formative assessment takes three main forms. First, weekly homework in most of the modules aims at promoting subject-specific understanding, logic, accurate calculation and good presentation. Secondly, weekly discussion of key theories and academic readings in management aim to develop understanding, logical argument and critical assessment. Thirdly, timely feedback is provided on the content and performance of student presentations and tutorials.

Organise and manage their time

Teaching/Learning Methods and Strategies

Transferable skills development will permeate the teaching and learning on the degree programme. Group teaching sessions, discussions with industry experts, practitioners and more traditional lecture enquiry will be used to guide the learning experience.

Methods of Assessment

Successful completion of coursework requires students to gather information from a range of sources, select and assimilate relevant information and to complete tasks within deadlines. Assessment of coursework requires students to use a range of media (e.g. worked solutions and proofs, essays, PowerPoint presentations, statistical-based project work) to demonstrate their learning. Students will also acquire the ability to write projects and longer and more structured critical essays (such as the MSc dissertation or the critical literature review), which include the skill of reading and summarising academic articles. Students will be able to analyse business and marketing strategies and understand the role of managers and marketing officers in a wide range of organizations.

Synthesise and evaluate information/data from a variety of sources including from databases, books, journal articles and the internet
