| Method
of Assessment at University Foundation Programme |
The
course is assessed on the basis of credit points, and has been carefully
designed so that Minor and Major modules each carry a number of
points for both coursework and examinations in each of the three
Phases of the University Foundation Programme.
The
overall allocation of points for the course is divided on a ratio
of 40:60, for coursework and examinations respectively. However,
the allocation varies for individual modules and Phases depending
on the nature of the subject and most suitable method of assessment.
For
example, Mathematics coursework carries 60 points and Mathematics
examinations carry 100 points, whereas Art coursework carries 100
points and Art examinations carry 100.
Students
who maintain a steady workload throughout each of the three Phases
of the University Foundation Programme and who acknowledge the importance
of both coursework and examinations will therefore benefit.
