2 15. Educational aims of the programme i.e what is the purpose of the programme and general statements about the learning that takes place over the duration of the programme The aims of the Foundation Degree in International Studies are: to provide students with a thorough grounding in political ideas, history and institutions and their interaction to equip students with an understanding of the international and comparative context of political events and processes to broaden students horizons and extend their capabilities through the study of a modern foreign language to provide students with direct and extended experience of working in a public or third sector organisation to equip students to reflect critically on that experience to provide an open and supportive learning environment by encouraging students to draw on their own experiences and relate them to the module to prepare those students who perform to the required level to progress to an honours degree 16. Educational objectives of the programme/programme outcomes (as relevant to the SEEC Credit Level Descriptors) The programme provides opportunities for students to develop and demonstrate knowledge and understanding and skills in the following areas: The programme provides a knowledge and understanding of the following: Knowledge and understanding These are achieved through the following teaching/learning methods and strategies: the ways in which concepts are used to illuminate issues of power, conflict and legitimacy how political events and processes are understood in an international and comparative context the ways in which political events and processes are subject to different and contested interpretations how international affairs have evolved since 1945 Knowledge and understanding in these areas is acquired through a combination of: lectures designed to provide students with the basis for understanding key approaches in political studies classes, small group discussions and syndicate work independent study focused on key essential and supplementary reading an individual research project to be submitted for the dissertation option modules selected to provide depth of understanding of international issues Assessment: Assessment will be by a mix of assessment methods, including unseen examinations, extended essays, both formative and summative, and oral presentations. The areas of study in which these are acquired are shown in the attached annex
3 Intellectual Skills: Skills and other attributes These are achieved through the following teaching/learning methods and strategies: the ability to compare and contrast the ways in which political issues arise and are approached in different political systems the ability to gather, assess and deploy evidence from a variety of primary and secondary sources the ability to construct a reasoned argument the ability to manage learning critically and independently the ability to plan, develop and undertake a substantial independent study Intellectual skills are developed through the teaching and learning strategies deployed in this programme, which are designed to facilitate the students acquisition of relevant knowledge and understanding, together with the development of appropriate critical skills; specifically by: independent critical reading and thinking in preparation for lectures, classes and assignments peer group discussion collaborative work in groups preparation of work for presentation to programme members preparation and development of an extended essay or dissertation Assessment: Intellectual skills are assessed by a mix of assessment methods, including unseen examinations, extended essays, both formative and summative, and oral presentations. The ability to plan, develop and undertake an individual study is formally assessed by the dissertation and informally in the workshops on project preparation. The areas of study in which these are acquired are shown in the attached annex Practical Skills: the ability to present findings in a professional manner, both orally and in writing the ability to identify and source and assess secondary literature and primary research material the ability to use appropriate information technology for gathering, processing and presenting material the ability to communicate effectively in a modern foreign language These are acquired through the following teaching/learning methods and strategies: Practical skills are developed through the teaching and learning programme which gives specific attention to basic research and literature acquisition skills as well as to competence in a modern foreign language. The dissertation is also key to the acquisition of a high standard of presentation skill. Assessment: Practical skills are formally assessed by coursework and informally by presentations, using IT appropriately as an adjunct to oral delivery, as well as in the submission of the dissertation. Generic/transferable skills: The ability to tackle problems in a rigorous and open-minded fashion, in a spirit of critical enquiry The areas of study in which these are acquired are shown in the attached annex These are achieved through the following teaching/learning methods and strategies: Generic and transferable skills are developed throughout the teaching and learning programme outlined above and specifically
4 The development of effective and sustainable independent learning skills the ability to work effectively as a member of a team the ability to manage time and task within a pressured workplace environment the ability to make effective use of IT the ability to present findings to audiences with clarity and confidence through individual and group assignments in the core modules and, where applicable, across the spectrum of option modules. Assessment: Generic and transferable skills are informally assessed primarily through coursework assignments and exercises, where students are required to work both jointly and individually, and formally by performance during the creditbearing work placement, which will be assessed by means of analytic report and presentation. The areas of study in which these are acquired are shown in the attached annex 17. Statement of how the programme has been informed by the relevant subject benchmark statement(s)/professional and statutory body guidelines There is no specific Foundation Degree level benchmark statement for Politics and International Studies, within which this programme falls. However, regard has been paid to the Revised (2007) Honours statement for that discipline (QAA /07), both as regard coverage of the subject, knowledge and understanding of the subject, skills, and standards and levels of achievement. The revised flexibility criteria of the QAA Foundation Degree Qualification Benchmark (QAA /2004) stress the desirability of a direct link to at least one honours degree to enable progression, and it is planned to introduce a BA in International Politics, to provide such a link, in 2011/12. Accordingly, while this programme is designed to be free-standing, the cognisance taken of the Subject Benchmark reflects this intention to provide a route to the honours degree. The Subject Benchmark acknowledges the broad, fluid and contested scope of the subject, while assuming a somewhat rigid distinction between politics and international relations. This programme is designed to span that boundary by introducing students to the study of politics in its European and global settings. The starting point, which is as applicable at the Foundation Degree level as at the honours level, is that the study of politics is concerned with developing a knowledge and understanding of government and society. The interaction of people, ideas and institutions is central to shaping the outcomes of political processes and government decision-making at many levels, global, regional, national, local and sectoral. The special characteristic of this programme as a Foundation degree is to provide the opportunity to enrich that understanding through an extended work experience in a public or third sector body. In accordance with the Subject Benchmark, this programme gives a central place to questions of political order and decision making. The programme will equip students to think critically and independently about these issues and to develop the range of skills that will support their intellectual, vocational and personal development. They will be able to gather, organise and deploy evidence, discriminate appropriately to synthesise relevant information, construct reasoned arguments and reflect on their own learning so as to be better equipped for life-long learning. 18.

N/A Maximum number of credits permitted with a condoned fail (core modules excluded) 15 Are students permitted to take any additional credits, as per regulation A4; 5.8? Yes Are there any exceptions to the regulations regarding credits, progression or award requirements? No Other relevant information to explain the programme structure As a Foundation Degree, this programme combines the academic rigour equivalent to the first two years of an honours degree and practical engagement with the world of work. Flexible
7 modes of study are offered to accommodate part-time students and while many will enter with conventional academic qualifications, prior experience and learning, whether certificated or not, will be assessed for admission. In the first year of the Foundation Degree students will study developments in world politics since 1945 along with comparative politics and political theory. They will study a modern foreign language and acquire the skills and perspectives necessary to the understanding of politics and government. The study of politics and policy-making continues in the second year with language training to a more advanced level and further option courses. Language studies are compulsory at a level appropriate to the learner, with the assessment of that level being made by the College s Modern Language Centre. The central feature of the second year is the close linkage of learning and work, achieved through an employer work placement with an appropriate organisation. This placement, which extends across two semesters, carries considerable weight in the degree structure, is examined by means of a reflective report and presentation, and must be passed to gain the award. This requirement can also be met by part-time students remaining in employment during the course of their programme. In order to provide students with sufficient opportunity for independent self-directed learning a dissertation will be presented at the end of the second year, on an approved topic of the student s own choosing. Subject to satisfactory performance and the accumulation of 240 credits, students will be able to continue their studies at a higher level gaining a further 120 credits to achieve the BA in International Politics. The programme may be pursued by part-time study, with the modules taken as indicated above. By the end of the programme all students should have completed 240 credits, of which a minimum of 120 credits must be from level 5,
