Employability in the Curriculum

On completing the course the students will be equipped with the background for a wide variety of positions inbusiness within an increasingly global context. The students will have developed skills and backgroundknowledge needed for a wide variety of business areas, including marketing, finance, HR, sales, projectmanagement and management, having had the opportunity to work on real projects and access lectures andworkshops by senior managers in the workplace. A career in business is varied and there is an increasingneed for business management skills in government, international commerce, health care, and non-profitorganisations. Careers as entry-level manager, Human Resources specialist, Assistant Product Manager,Business Analyst, Market Researcher are some of the possibilities.

Students may decide to continue their studies at Master’s level. The University offers a number of differentMaster’s courses in a variety of relevant disciplines.

Teaching, Learning and Assessment

The course draws on a number of theoretical approaches in the design of the learning activities. The learner isviewed as a unique individual with unique needs and backgrounds. Therefore learning activities that allowstudents to pursue learning activities that fulfil their intrinsic motivations will be encouraged.

Knowledge and Understanding

Reading – both core and supplementary reading from books, journals and electronic sources and keepingabreast of current affairs and business news.Case Study Analysis – looking at the application of theory and practice, to identify problems andrecommend solutions.Online Discussions – on identified themes to draw out and share personal experiences and learningamongst the wider group through various digitised forums.Problem-based learning approaches to enhance students’ knowledge in an enterprising way.Online lecture materials, activities and formative tests.Online Tutorials.

Subject-specific

Undertaking research for projects/dissertation and individual exercisesCase study analysisAssessment preparation and feedbackOnline discussion

Assessment Methods

The principal aim of an assessment method is to select the most effective way of assessing the modulelearning outcomes. The choice of assessment methods have also been aligned with the overall aims of thecourse and thus include, demonstrating an understanding of organisations, their management and thechanging external environment in which they operate, application of skills relevant to a career in businessand management, demonstrating a flexible and enquiring intellectual stance that contributes to lifelonglearning and personal development and the ability to use a range of advanced technologies in a global context. The assessment strategy for Level 4 is primarily concerned with mainly developing knowledge and thus theassessment at this level focuses on describing the main concepts. Level 5 study is more concerned withcomprehension & application based on knowledge. While Level 6 focuses on higher level skills in analysis,evaluation and critique. The assessment at this level will focus on ability to synthesize and critique businessand management concepts. The course assessment strategy is designed offer variety of assessment methods; indicative forms ofassessment include report writing, portfolios, essays, and dissertation.

The underpinning pedagogic approach to learning and teaching Online Distance Learning is one of learningthrough doing, and thus through the learning activities which accompany the key concepts, theories or ideas.This approach sees that the development of a supportive learning community, whereby learners and tutorswork together and share understanding and ideas, is a key way of enabling active learning. Communitiesdevelop themselves through sharing experiences, dialogue, working together, supporting one another, andpursuing a similar goal. The OLDL BABM uses communicative dialogue, between tutors and learners, andbetween the learners themselves as a key activity. The course provides full knowledge and text basedresources to further understanding of the many issues to be considered. The OLDL BABM pedagogy adopts theperspective that such sources in themselves are not sufficient for the deep learning to which our learnersshould aspire. The regular use of collaborative learning activities throughout the course are designed toenable learning to take place through taking the fundamental understandings from such sources and doingsomething with them. On-line distance learning students will experience a variety of learning activities suchas guided reading, use of electronic journal articles, structured e-book reading, access to external web basedresources, on-line interactive tasks (with tutor support), forum and blog discussions, problem solvingactivities, on-line formative tests, skype tutorials, and wiki development.

OLDL learners also have access to online speakers, online conferences etc. with inputs recorded or accessiblein real time, as appropriate.

Course Specific Support

There are number of levels of support available for learning.

In providing flexible and interactive e-learning opportunities to meet student needs, e-learning componentswill be designed to form an integral feature of the learning, teaching and support. The VLE will be the primaryfocus of the online supported learning dimension of all modules. Additionally, students have access to theonline databases and other software resources available through the learning centre.

Flexible and interactive e-learning opportunities will also be offered to on-line distance learning students. Aplatform will be provided for learning materials and activities to support online learning across all modules. Acohesive package of e-learning components has been designed to compensate for a lack of traditionalclassroom contact by presenting an integrated package of learning, teaching and support. All e-learners willbe supported by online tutors. In addition e-learners will make use of the online databases and other softwareresources available through LIS, including learning skills support.

A personal tutor is allocated to every student. Personal tutors maintain regular virtual communication witheach of their designated tutees. Follow-up meetings are arranged with students who are not makingsatisfactory progress or who are at risk of withdrawal. Personal tutors assist students in their personal andacademic development, planning and progression. As well as offering students advice and guidance to helpthem to liaise with other staff and support facilities in their school and the University, including study skillssupport.

These arrangements will apply tothose students who have identified special learning requirements.

Members of the Learning Centres are invited to advise online students about accessing printed and electronicresources and provide support for research. LIS also provide a number of electronic resources includingpodcasts, which can support distance learners in these areas. The ‘skills for learning’ skills support facilitycan be accessed electronically via www.wlv.ac.uk/lib/skills

Contact Hours

In higher education, the term ‘contact hours’ is used very broadly, to refer to the amount of time that youspend learning in contact with teaching or associated staff, when studying for a particular course.

This time provides you with the support in developing your subject knowledge and skills, and opportunitiesto develop and reflect on your own, independent learning. Contact time can take a wide variety of formsdepending on your subject, as well as where and how you are studying. Some of the most common examplesare:

lecturesseminarstutorialsproject supervisionsdemonstrationspractical classes and workshopssupervised time in a studio/workshopfieldworkexternal visitswork-based learning (including placements)scheduled virtual interaction with tutor such as on line, skype, telephone

In UK higher education, you as the student take primary responsibility for your own learning. In this context,contact time with teaching and associated staff is there to help shape and guide your studies. It may be usedto introduce new ideas and equip you with certain knowledge or skills, demonstrate practical skills for you topractise independently, offer guidance on project work, or to provide personalised feedback.

Alongside contact time, private or independent study is therefore very significant. This is the time that youspend learning without direct supervision from, or contact with, a member of staff. It might includebackground reading, preparation for seminars or tutorials, follow-up work, wider practice, the completion ofassignments, revision, and so on.

Course Specific Health and Safety Issues

Working from home, in your office, or wherever you are studying means we have little we can do to supportyour welfare directly. Do remember that using laptops/pads etc in a very relaxed sitting or lying position maycause back, neck, or shoulder issues. Make sure that you have the right level of light for whatever screens orbooks that you are using to reduce eye strain. Do have reasonable breaks from the screen, and get a "stretch"and relax occasionally. Make sure that you do maintain some balance of work, study and your whole life.
