Teaching and Learning Strategies |
|
The module will primarily be delivered through a series of e-lectures, delivered through 15-20 minutes podcasts covering key ideas and theories of leadership. These will be supported by individual online tasks and discussion boards, which will be used to develop and apply learning. These will be moderated by the module instructor to ensure individual and group feedback. Students will also be directed to key academic and practitioner readings to further develop their learning. Unscheduled Directed Student Hours: 12 hours Description: The e-Lectures will equate to 1.5 hours/week over 8 weeks undertaken asynchronously. Students will participate in virtual action learning, through peer discussion focused on applying learning to the challenges within their own work contexts. This will be facilitated by the module instructor, to model an action learning mode of questioning and encourage similar int eraction between students. Unscheduled Directed Student Hours: 8 hours Description: The virtual action learning will equate to 1 hour/week over 8 weeks undertaken asynchronously. Self-Directed Learning Hours: 130 hours Description: This will involve directed and independent reading, independent research, and assessment preparation. |
