You will be provided with feedback on your learning throughout the course. There are two kinds of feedback you will receive:

Formative Assessments

Your course will include a series of formative assessments and activities that are embedded throughout the modules. Formative assessments will help you to identify your strengths and address any potential gaps in your knowledge, understanding and skills.

Summative Assessments

Your course will normally have a number of graded summative assessment tasks which contribute to your final grade. Summative assessment is designed to indicate the extent of your success in achieving the learning outcomes. It can also be used to address any potential gaps in your knowledge, understanding and skills in subsequent courses.

Timing of Feedback

Feedback on your assessment tasks will normally be provided within ten working days (but no later than fifteen) from the due date or the date of the submission, whichever is the later. Where tasks are related, feedback will be provided to you before the next assessment task. For the final assessment task, where feedback doesn't inform the submission of another task, feedback will be provided no later than the release of your final grade.
