Study arrangements. Much of the course consists of asynchronous content as this allows the maximum flexibility for students to enable you to plan your study time when it most suits you, and to facilitate students working in different time zones. The teaching materials are posted online in advance, and you can work through them in your own time, communicating with each other and your tutors via discussion boards or email. There is a recommended schedule for you to follow to help you stay on track and deadlines for work to be submitted. There is also some synchronous teaching, where the lecturer and students are together in an online space to give you the opportunity to ask questions in real time and discuss issues. If you are not available for a live session these will be recorded to view later.

Wide reading during your study is vital and you should ensure you keep up to date with reading tasks. Module overviews will contain information about required reading which should be undertaken in advance of the relevant session every week as many of the activities during sessions will include reference to these. Module tutors will also identify wider reading which will support a deeper understanding of the module themes.
