Students are encouraged to reflect on how they use evidence and how they assess its quality and reference it. They are given information and set a task. They are also taken through the stages of critiquing a research paper to develop their critical thinking skills and awareness of academic conventions. All of their exercises are recorded in a learning diary in which they are encouraged to reflect. This module is taught as part of the personal tutorial system with material supplied by the module leader and is a good foundation for a PDP.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Assessment<\/th>\n<td>Learning Diary (30%)<\/p>\n<p>Essay (40%)<\/p>\n<p>Group presentation and report (30%)<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<th>Ideas for adapting<\/th>\n<td>The Learning Diary requires all students to engage with the weekly tasks and to reflect on that engagement.
