Teaching and learning methods
Learning will be achieved through the study of simulated case studies and clinical examples. Learning will be supported through guided learning activities in groups, small group work, practical workshops and, where appropriate, formal lectures. Guided group learning will form a significant component of student activity and will be facilitated at the start of the module by School staff and, where appropriate, latterly visiting clinicians and/ or clients with multiple and integrated problems. Formative feedback will be achieved through the guided learning groups and supported by School staff. Iterative reflection will also underpin the guided learning groups
