Module Assessment Strategies
Assessment is continuous and is undertaken at the conclusion of each block or project. Projects are assessed by the assignment of marks to various project deliverables. The percentages assigned to deliverables may vary between projects.
Project deliverables may include Research, Conceptual development of ideas, Design Development/methodology, Prototyping, final design implementation. A percentage mark is assigned for each deliverable, adding to a total a total of 100%. Each project is assigned a percentage of the overall module mark dependent on project length.
The module marks assigned to each project are typical not of equal weighting, as more complex projects are given to students towards the end of the module and these usually receive the highest weighting.
Repeat Assessments
On failure of the module, the student will be issued with a repeat project/projects that will satisfy the module learning outcomes.
