This is a 15-point course with 10 teaching weeks over the quarter, which corresponds to a learning effort of 150 hours.
Learning time of 5 hours per week comprising of up to 1 hour of online materials, 2 hours of tutorial workshops, and 2 hours of team-based learning (TBL). Please note that classes are likely to have a combination of these elements e.g. mini lectures and TBL, rather than purely one element. Class time will involve activities such as the delivery of learning content, discussion, problem-solving, groupwork, and provision of feedback from assessments.
This leaves a total of about 100 hours across the entire course for independent study, e.g., revision of learning content, reading, preparing for assessments, etc.
Students are also expected to attend the additional Business Communication seminar hours designed to support their courses. Although these are not compulsory, these are considered core and are designed to enhance the learning process.
Beyond these hours, students are strongly encouraged to seek assistance from the Business Communications Team (BCT) for any assessments.
