Enhanced Practice (Radiography) PGDip/PGCert

Overview

Teaching, learning and assessment

The programme uses a blended approach to learning incorporating short block attendance and online learning via the university virtual learning environment (VLE) platforms. You will be able to collaborate in small groups both on campus and online, as well as in the whole cohort, for learning and formative feedback. Structured feedback sessions allow all the students to engage in the iterative learning process building confidence in critical thinking and constructive criticism as expected of their emerging clinical leadership role. 

Work-based learning is key to the focus of the award and you will have formalised support in the clinical environment to develop alongside academic progress. Throughout the programme progress, professional reflection and development, and knowledge and skills within your role and tripartite review (student, clinical workplace, and university) will be supported.

Learning will be assessed against the learning outcomes and programme aims through the use of a range of different assessment techniques which may include one or more of the following approaches:

• Written assignment
• Oral presentation
• Written examination
• Completion of clinical competency document(s)
• Poster(s)
• Completion of a dissertation

There are multiple opportunities for focussing assessments around your area of practice and workplace enabling the choice of assessment topics to be relevant to your workplace, scope of practice and learning needs.
