Assessment tasks are designed to enable students to demonstrate the Learning and Employability outcomes for the relevant level of study. Level Learning Outcomes are embedded in the assessment task(s) at that level. This enables a more integrated view of overall student performance at each level.
The module will explore key issues surrounding inclusion for children and adults in education settings and society. Areas such as access, employment and disability rights will be explored and you will have the opportunity to consider inclusion as a social issue that includes but also goes beyond education. You will also examine the challenges inclusion presents to current practitioners and our society.

Further details relating to assessment
Formative Assessments at all Levels involve students tackling parts of an assessment task or related task and benefiting from peer and tutor review or participants. In this way, the formative assessment provides students with the opportunity to identify areas of strength and weakness and develop their understanding of how to complete successfully the summative assessment. E.G. In seminars/workshops, student groups provide structured input/ feedback on each other’s work, set in the context of tutor and peer input. Students can then use this feedback and the critiques to inform their submission of final assessment .
The portfolio will include a selection of written work and / or artefacts that include reflection and critical analysis of inclusion polices and practices.
Further information will be included in the Module Handbook.
