Integrated assessment:
A combination of formative assessment (projects, assignments, practical activities, laboratory work, written tests, practical tests, group discussions) and summative assessment methods (written examinations, practical examination, a portfolio of practical work) are compiled and assessed. A graduate will be able to identify, assess, explain, interpret, discuss, compare, analyse and solve landscape problems. Assessment practices should integrate these elements, combining appropriate application of knowledge, skills and values to signify competence in a learner. Formative assessment will be continuous.
