Course structure and assessment

How the course will work

• The course is divided into two weeks.
• Each week there will be two activities, with a range of different tasks for you to complete at your own pace.
• The course is not facilitated, but is designed to support peer learning through online discussions.
• There will be a range of quizzes, reading sections, videos, and chances for you to discuss questions with other learners; this can be a great way of getting different viewpoints and ideas, so do use these chances to network with your peers and share your ideas!

Course assessment

Finally, there is an assignment to assess your understanding of the concepts you have covered. The pass mark is 70%, and you can take the test as many times as you need.

The personalised Certificate of Achievement and transcript detail the syllabus and learning outcomes, as well as your end of course test score. This provides evidence of your interest in and understanding of this subject. The certificate comes in both printable and digital formats, so you can easily add it to your CV or LinkedIn profile.

Thinking about your motivations

Thinking about your motivations may help you identify what you most want to get out of this course. 

Please answer this short course introduction survey about your current experience, knowledge and interests related to the topics covered in this course. The survey will take less than 5 minutes to complete.

Your response will also help us to gain valuable insights directly from learners. We use these insights to help us understand a little more about our learners and what you want from the course. This helps us create a more effective and enriching learning experience. There are a couple more (even shorter) surveys in the course too.

Note: this optional survey does not affect your completion of the course. Further detail on how we (University of Leeds) use survey responses is included at the start of the survey and in this Privacy Notice.
