All students and staff involved with the course have access to this area. Information provided includes the student handbook, marking criteria, teaching calendar, assessment schedule, academic and administrative staff contact details, example library searches, self help tutorials for Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint, research module project description and past examples, conferences and jobs, specific example library searches, library induction and links to the online enrolment, finance, PDP, student records and graduation websites. Dedicated discussion boards in the student support area in WebCT are available to discuss library issues, technical difficulties and general intellectual discussion on the subject area. This area also acts as a Staff-Student consultative arena.
7 160 Students are provided with a welcome document for each module in week one and are required to participate in activities designed to help them to get to know each other and to familiarise themselves with the online environment. Module Coordinators assume full responsibility for the overall running of their module (s) and operate within the policy laid down by the School. As such, Module Coordinators oversee the process of responding to academic-related enquiries. An E-tutor is assigned to each module and on the first day of term, makes contact with all students enrolled. The E-tutor is not responsible for any academic duties on the course, but acts as a contact point Monday to Friday to help students with technical issues and provide support in the absence of immediate academic response. E-tutors are current PhD students employed from within the School of Psychology. Each student on the programme is allocated to a Studies Adviser. The role of the Studies Adviser is to provide the point of contact for students, and to provide support and guidance on both academic and non-academic matters that are relevant to the student s progress on the programme, to monitor the progress of the tutee, and generally provide advice on aspects of the programme which need additional clarification. Each student is allocated a supervisor for their dissertation. The dissertation supervisor is responsible for guidance and supervision of the process of carrying out the dissertation in accordance with the guidelines for supervision laid down by the Programme Board. Students are able to contact the Course Director, Module Coordinators, lecturing staff, administration staff, elearning at Ulster technical staff and E-tutors by telephone, WebCT, , post or in person. Detailed formative feedback is provided for all coursework assessments. University-wide resources are available e.g. Personal Development Planning, Careers Office, Information Services Department, Student Support Department, Sport and Recreation Department, International Office, Students Union, Chaplaincy. The Students Union provides, where appropriate, financial support and legal advice. 14 CRITERIA FOR ADMISSION Applicants must hold a relevant degree (with at least 2ii Honours standard) which provides the Graduate Basis for Chartered Membership with the BPS or equivalent or demonstrate their ability to undertake the course through the accreditation of prior experiential learning..
8 EVALUATING AND IMPROVING THE QUALITY AND STANDARD OF TEACHING AND LEARNING The Course Director assumes overall responsibility for ensuring that the systems for monitoring and evaluation of the quality of the programme operate effectively. The systems of monitoring and evaluation operate to inform the programme team's decision-making and planning, with the ultimate aim of ensuring that the student experience is a positive one. Continuous monitoring allows the identification of problem areas and allows proactive intervention to redress the problems and to ensure they don't reoccur. Included in the monitoring and evaluation process are; programme content; effectiveness of teaching strategies; effectiveness and fairness of assessment procedures; the quality of the staffstudent relationship, and the operation of mechanisms for student involvement in the decision-making process. Programme evaluation operates within the terms of the University academic regulations. The Course Director, together with the course team, is responsible for ensuring that quality assurance procedures are carried out in accordance with the University s requirements. A range of monitoring and evaluation activities, both formal and informal, are employed to enable the team to determine whether the quality of the provision in terms of appropriateness of programme content and the effectiveness of learning and teaching strategies is maintained. These activities also serve as a means of identifying and rectifying shortcomings, and of enhancing quality. The range of activities in operation includes the following: Students give frequent feedback (via the Discussion Board, or telephone), particularly in the early stages of the course, on the learning environment, including the WebCT platform, delivery of lecture and practical materials, access to directed reading and other online library resources and any technical problems. Student views on teaching quality, content, assessment and so on are sought for each module using electronic module evaluation forms which are given at the end of every DL module in WebCT. These electronic module evaluation forms are anonymous. The external examiner is invited to visit the University once or twice per year to evaluate the course provision, assure standards and attend exam board meetings. The external examiner is also given access to the distance learning modules on WebCT (including the discussion board) to evaluate aspects such as the online course provision, communication tools, student participation and student views. Feedback from students and the external examiner, together with an analysis of student performance, is incorporated into the Programme Management System and contributes to course development. The course is revalidated as part of a five year cycle of revalidation by the University of Ulster Staff appraisal is carried out on a 2 year cycle with attention given to the development needs of the individual staff member. At school and faculty levels there are active Learning & Teaching Committees responsible for coordinating developments and initiatives relating to innovative methods of delivery, technology mediated learning, as well as general resource issues. In addition, these committees are responsible for regulating faculty codes of practice relating to course management and delivery. Views of employers will be sought on a regular basis.
9 162 Staff participate in the University s peer review scheme and a number of enhancements to teaching have been made through this process. 16 REGULATION OF STANDARDS Assessment Rules These conform to the guidelines set out in the University Assessment Handbook and in summary: The pass mark for the course and modules is 50%. PgCert: pass in any 2 of the 4 taught modules. PgDip: pass in all four taught modules. PgDip with Distinction: an overall average of 70% or more. Masters: pass in all four taught modules and pass in Masters Dissertation module. Masters with Distinction: an overall average of 70% or more in all modules and achieved over 70% in the dissertation module. External examiners External examiners are academic subject or professional experts appointed from outside the University. Their key functions are to contribute to the assurance of the standards of the award and the fair treatment of students. They are involved in the moderation and approval of assessments and the moderation of the marking undertaken by internal examiners. It may be necessary in the future to have more than one external examiner but initially the programme has started with one. The role of the external examiner is to ensure that the assessment process operates equitably, that the assessment process operates fairly and equitably for all students and that the standard of University awards is maintained.
10 INDICATORS OF QUALITY RELATING TO TEACHING AND LEARNING Accreditation for the programme has been granted from the BPS as per their Postgraduate Accreditation procedure. Four members of staff are Registered Health Psychologists. Two members of the teaching staff are accredited Fellows of the Higher Education Academy. Newly appointed members of staff complete the Postgraduate Certificate in Higher Education Practice (PGCHEP). Outcomes from QAA Subject Review: 2000 Psychology rated "Excellent". Several members of staff are founding members of the Division of Health Psychology, Northern Ireland; one is currently Chair of this Committee, one is Secretary and one is Treasurer. One member of the team is an HPC visitor for Health Psychology and Stage 2 BPS assessor for the independent route. She is also currently Chair of the BPS DHP Training Committee and another member of staff is a member of the same committee. Some team members are also involved with the PSI DHP and NIBPS Committees. Teaching staff are also involved in external examining duties for PhDs and taught programmes in Health Psychology at other institutions. All teaching staff are members of the Psychology Research Institute. The Research Assessment Exercise of 2008 showed that The School of Psychology submission had an overall profile of: 5% at 4* (world leading in terms of originality, significance, and rigour), 20% at 3* (internationally excellent), 45% at 2* (internationally recognised) and 30% at 1* (nationally recognised). Research active members of staff helped to secure 3.26 million to fund health related research programmes during the last RAE period. This level of activity ensures that teaching is delivered by lecturers at the forefront of research advances within the subject area.
