Teaching and Learning

Classes
Each module normally comprises 18 hours intensive lectures delivered by teaching staff of University of Wolverhampton on Sunday (6 hours), 3 weekday evenings (3 hours per night) and Saturday afternoon (3 hours). After the intensive lectures, there will be 8 weekly tutorials (2 hours each) delivered by local tutors for each module.

At the end of each semester, there will be 9 hours revision sessions held by staff from University of Wolverhampton to provide additional support to students before the examination week or submission of the final reports.

Learning materials will be provided to students for each module to support students' learning. Students will also be provided access to the CityU's Run Run Shaw Library (including electronic resources) and computer services centre located on campus and other centers. In addition, students will also be provided access to the Wolverhampton On-line Learning Framework (WOLF) system, a purpose-built computer-based learning environment developed by University of Wolverhampton to enable students to access course notes, related resources and support materials, and to communicate with tutors and other students on-line.
