Areas of study
Two modules on Principles of Practice-based Learning cover; the role of the clinician in facilitating learning; identifying the learner, the facilitator and their interaction; learning theories relating to the practice setting and factors influencing learning; creating a learning environment; methods of facilitating learning; assessment and evaluation; and the development and purpose of learning in the practice-based setting.
Practice-based Learning in Action requires participants to put Rowntree's curriculum model into action in their own practice setting - by planning, implementing, assessing and evaluating a complete learning experience for an individual or group of learners.
Integrated within the university's health and social science graduate programme, the course provides valuable cross-disciplinary experience through common modules shared with other courses in the scheme.
