Overview
Module aims and purpose
- To help students develop the independent learning skills necessary for higher level studies.
- To help students develop self-study skills to enable them to research an unknown topic, learn about it and solve a problem based upon it.
- To familiarise students with a range of resources for researching unknowns.
- To help students develop effective time management, organisation and team working skills.
- To give students practice and support in written and oral communication and to develop scientific writing skills.
- To begin to consider career plans and prepare applications for industrial placements and internships.
Module learning outcomes
By the end of the module, it is expected that students will be able to:
- Organise themselves and team members to communicate in appropriate ways or through appropriate media.
- Access a variety of resources including the chemical literature to obtain data and summarise findings.
- Write a continuous piece of prose using suitable language for the audience.
- Present data and findings in a number of different formats suitable for the target audience.
- Improve their research, organisational, time management, team working, IT and oral communication skills.
- Make value judgments about their own work and the work of peers.
Module content
This module will give students the skills required to succeed in Part 1 and beyond by laying the foundations for successful study. The module will include talks on how to manage the transition from prior study to independent, university study. In addition, this course will encourage students to think about their future career and how to achieve their career goals. As well as developing life skills, students will also develop academic skills, for example assessment literacy, the use of subject-specific software and approaching group work. This content will be delivered through a combination of lectures, workshops and seminars.
Structure
Teaching and learning methods
The module will be delivered by introductory talks and/or videos for each topic. A Blackboard site will be provided giving links and information about all the resources recommended for completing the coursework. Opportunities are built into the module for students to approach staff for guidance and feedback. Student feedback will be delivered at the plenary sessions for oral presentations and via written comments or podcasts on Blackboard for the formal report summaries.
Study hours
At least 48 hours of scheduled teaching and learning activities will be delivered in person, with the remaining hours for scheduled and self-scheduled teaching and learning activities delivered either in person or online. You will receive further details about how these hours will be delivered before the start of the module.

Penalties for late submission of summative assessment
The Support Centres will apply the following penalties for work submitted late:
Assessments with numerical marks
- where the piece of work is submitted after the original deadline (or any formally agreed extension to the deadline): 10% of the total marks available for that piece of work will be deducted from the mark for each working day (or part thereof) following the deadline up to a total of three working days;
- the mark awarded due to the imposition of the penalty shall not fall below the threshold pass mark, namely 40% in the case of modules at Levels 4-6 (i.e. undergraduate modules for Parts 1-3) and 50% in the case of Level 7 modules offered as part of an Integrated Masters or taught postgraduate degree programme;
- where the piece of work is awarded a mark below the threshold pass mark prior to any penalty being imposed, and is submitted up to three working days after the original deadline (or any formally agreed extension to the deadline), no penalty shall be imposed;
- where the piece of work is submitted more than three working days after the original deadline (or any formally agreed extension to the deadline): a mark of zero will be recorded.
Assessments marked Pass/Fail
- where the piece of work is submitted within three working days of the deadline (or any formally agreed extension of the deadline): no penalty will be applied;
- where the piece of work is submitted more than three working days after the original deadline (or any formally agreed extension of the deadline): a grade of Fail will be awarded.
The University policy statement on penalties for late submission can be found at: /cqsd/-/media/project/functions/cqsd/documents/qap/penaltiesforlatesubmission.pdf
You are strongly advised to ensure that coursework is submitted by the relevant deadline. You should note that it is advisable to submit work in an unfinished state rather than to fail to submit any work.
Formative assessment
Formative assessment is any task or activity which creates feedback (or feedforward) for you about your learning, but which does not contribute towards your overall module mark.
Assessment-literacy group assignment.
