A novel of twists and surprises

Hallmarks

Context material is delivered as part of the curriculum, and delivers the academic content of the programme specification:

  • student learning can be assessed and accredited;
  • student learning should be debriefed through a supported process;
  • academic staff extend their approach to teaching and learning.

Context material is developed within a partnership of academic staff and employers to provide real-world data and provides:

  • academic staff in universities with awareness of the workplace;
  • employers with an understanding of teaching issues.
