The material will be uploaded dynamically: the teaching approach is based on PBL and much of the
learning will be through interaction/group work during the assigned lecturing time. (Please check the website
for updates before every lecture.)
Assessment
The assessment will be structured as follows:
Practical Project Work (50%), 3rd February(latest)
Sessions are a mix of problem-based learning, group project work,
directed practicals, interactive lectures and traditional lectures. There is no preset format - the lecturer
organises the style and content of each session depending on the needs of the class.
