Integrated Assessment:
The method of assessment may vary according to the module purpose, its content and the teaching and learning approach adopted. Some modules are theoretically oriented; others require a more practical approach. This will be reflected in the assessment procedures.

Regular assessments of holistic knowledge skills and attributes of learners will be performed. The essence of the assessment approach will be that of formative and summative assessments, which will incorporate written assignments, case studies and a formal written examination. Written assignments are directly linked to theory and will incorporate the theory and skills related to the Exit Level Outcomes.

In each module, assignments will be done where learners will have to prove they have mastered the ability to understand, integrate and apply the theory learnt in the module in practice using suitable case studies. The learners’ insight in integrating and applying knowledge in practical situations will be assessed through such case studies and assignments. The case studies and assignments will be constructed in such a manner that assessment moves gradually from the formative to the summative.
