FEEDBACK SESSIONS: To support weekly lectures, students may voluntarily attend two-hour weekly drop-in sessions. Students may attend sessions if they require support with regard to any aspect of the course, but may especially want to focus on asking questions about preparing for the midterm and final exams (especially preparing essays), seeking feedback with regard to their understanding of key content, developing critical evaluation skills, and prospective and retrospective exam performance. Sessions will be student-led so that students have the opportunity to receive feedback specific to their own progress and achievement. Students should note that during feedback sessions the lecturer will neither cover new content nor summarise entire lectures that students may have missed.

24
Lecture

Weekly two-hour content lectures will run in weeks 1-5 and 8-11 of semester 2. In addition, a revision session will run in week 6 (Reading Week), to prepare students for the midterm exam in week 7, and in week 12 to prepare students for the final exam which will sit during the final assessment period. All sessions will be recorded.

24
Private study

Students should expect to complete 52 hours of self-study in order to achieve the learning outcomes for this module. Self-study will take the form of essential (+ further and additional) reading, and preparation for exams. In addition to attending classes and voluntary feedback sessions (as required), students should be spending 4-6 hours each week during term-time engaging in reading and revision for this module.
