The Level 6 Short Course is an online course. Learning and teaching involve working your way through a series of online asynchronous modules to complete the Unit.
Teaching sessions are recorded and provide links to online resources to support your learning, this means the course does not require you to be present on campus and you can undertake the course at your own pace.
The course team conduct regular check in and monitoring sessions to ensure that you are supported in your learning and your progress is on track to complete within the registration period for the course.
As a part time asynchronous course, students progress at their own pace and are given 12 months (inclusive of assessment) to complete the course. Students can fit the course around their other commitments and may complete the course in advance of the maximum registration period.
Independent learning complements the teaching you receive on your course and allows time for skills and knowledge to be developed. Key aspects of learning develop through the acquisition of research skills, the generation and development of ideas, and independent study.

Assessment is the process of evaluating or assessing your learning. Sometimes it will involve consideration of work in progress, while at others it concentrates on work which you have completed and submitted as assessment requirements for each unit of study.

The University assesses you through the coursework that you produce as you complete the unit. The unit will require that you present a portfolio of work which may include finished pieces of work, written work, your research, and a reflective journal which allows you to evaluate your learning and highlight your strengths and areas for further development.

There are two types of assessment that you will receive while on your course:

• Formative assessment is the process whereby your work and progress are assessed at regular intervals with accompanying feedback from staff to help to improve your performance. Staff will provide you with feedback on the progress of your work before you reach the assessment point at the end of the unit. This may take place one-to-one with a tutor (e.g. in a tutorial) or in group sessions.
• Summative assessment is the process whereby your work is evaluated and given a mark at the end of the unit. Summative assessment formally records your achievement of the unit’s learning outcomes. You will be assessed against the approved unit learning outcomes and assessment requirements.

You will be guided through the specific areas of work in which you will be engaged to produce the work required for assessment and so successfully achieve the unit learning outcomes.

Whilst you are studying, you will enjoy the benefits of being part of the Norwich University of the Arts community – access to our library, our Virtual Learning Environment (VLE), the support of our employability and business start-up team, and at the end of your course we will invite you to our campus to celebrate your achievement.
