Module Aims

 

The aim of this module is to provide students with an introduction to key theories of learning and teaching in order to plan and deliver coaching activities to achieve specific learning objectives. Students will be encouraged to consider how coaching, performed by the coach and learning, performed by the learner are connected.

 

Module Learning Outcomes

 

Learning outcome 1 draw on theories of learning and teaching in order to analyse a professional educator’s plan and delivery in specific contexts

 

Learning outcome 2 identify and describe key factors that underpin learning in order to plan and deliver coaching activities to achieve specific learning objectives

 

Learning outcome 3  draw on theories of learning and teaching in order

 

to describe and evaluate their own and others coaching practice from a pedagogical perspective

 

 

 

Module Learning Activities

 

 

Drawing on the research, theories and concepts presented in this module students will be required to:

 

  • Acknowledge and connection of theoretical knowledge and skills to future teaching and coaching practice and past learning experiences
  • Discuss implications of theory and practice for future learning and practice

 

  • Synthesise theoretical knowledge as applied to practical skills of planning, delivery and evaluation of coaching
  • Plan and deliver a session based on clear learning outcomes

 

  • Select, design, justify, and implement appropriate practice activities and coaching behaviours to facilitate the short term learning needs of participants.
  • Describe and evaluate individual coaching practice.

 

  • Record coaching practice using video camera and radio microphone

Assessment 1

 

Each week the lecture and the practical session will be based around a specific theory/ concept relating learning, teaching or pedagogy. You will be provided with two key papers each week (in mybeckett under the relevant folder).

 

You will be required to synthesise (i.e. summarise) each paper in your own words (500 words per paper). You will then describe how you will apply the research/ theory into your coaching (500 words). Finally you will then create a detailed session plan which shows how you have incorporated the research into your practice.

 

For Formative feedback you will submit the first three weeks as a portfolio (see yellow box below). For Assessment 1a you will submit three weeks’ worth of work as a portfolio (see green box below). For Assessment 1b you will submit the next three weeks’ worth of work as a portfolio (see blue box below).

You are required to plan a session which is underpinned by theories/ concepts covered in the lectures. You may use one of the sessions that is provided in assessment 1, or you can create a new session plan. You are to deliver your session (15 minutes) to a group of students.

 

Post session, you will then discuss a range of topics (rationale for specific practices, how theory underpins your session, reflections on the session etc.) with your tutor. In these discussions you are permitted to bring notes on the research to allow you to explain your answers.

Student Instructions for Submission of Coursework

This module requires you to submit your work on-line.

 

 

You MUST submit your work through the VLE using the link set up by the tutor. Receipt of your work will be recorded.

 

Your “Turnitin assignments” in the VLE can be set up so that you can check your assignment yourself as you submit it. This checking is done by creating an “Originality Report”. If this report shows that there are some problems with your work, such as un-cited quotations, you should be able to make corrections and re-submit the work again before the due date.

 

Please note: Tutors will follow up any suspected plagiarism and unfair practice found after the submission date as per University policy. Late penalties will apply as per University regulations.

Feedback

 

 

This section explains both how you will get feedback on your module work and how you are encouraged to provide feedback about the module to the module and course team.

 

A mid-module review will be timetabled into your module by week 27. This is an opportunity to resolve modular issues rapidly early on in the module. In addition, you will have the opportunity to feed back formally at the end of your module. These comments will be reviewed by your course team and some may be considered at your annual course enhancement meeting. Your Course Representative will attend this and take your views to this meeting for discussion.

 

Understanding Your Assessment Responsibilities

 

 

Mitigation and Extenuating Circumstances

 

If you are experiencing problems which are adversely affecting your ability to study (called ‘extenuating circumstances’), then you can apply for mitigation. You can find full details of how to apply for mitigation at: www.leedsbeckett.ac.uk/studenthub/mitigation.htm.

 

The University operates a fit to sit/fit to submit approach to extenuating circumstances which means students who take their assessment are declaring themselves fit to do so.

 

Late Submission

 

 

Without any form of extenuating circumstances, standard penalties apply for late submission of assessed work. These range from 5% to 100% of the possible total mark, depending on the number of days late. Full details (section C1.5.7) of the penalties for late submission of course work are available at www.leedsbeckett.ac.uk/public-information/academic-regulations.

 

 

 

 

Cheating, Plagiarism and Other Forms of Unfair Practice

 

12

 

 

Academic misconduct occurs when you yourself have not done the work that you submit. It may include cheating, plagiarism, self-plagiarism, collusion and other forms of unfair practice. What is and what is not permitted is clearly explained in The Little Book of Cheating, Plagiarism and Unfair Practice which is available to view at: www.leedsbeckett.ac.uk/studenthub/plagiarism.htm.

 

The serious consequences of plagiarism and other types of unfair practice are detailed in section C9 of the Academic Regulations at www.leedsbeckett.ac.uk/public-information/academic-regulations/.

 

Reassessment

 

  1. If you have received a mark of under 40% for a module or have a non-submission for one or more components within the module you are advised to always take the re-assessment opportunity – You are taking a risk of having to repeat part or all of the year of study if you don’t.

 

  1. If you have received a mark of under 30% for a module you have to take the re-assessment opportunity – You cannot progress to the next level if you have an overall module mark under 30%.

 

  1. Where there is more than one component of assessment, individual grades can be lower than 30% as long as the overall module mark is at least 30% and you have submitted in each component.

 

  1. If you have failed a module that runs over both semesters (sometime referred to as a long-thin) then the re-assessments will always take place in the semester 2 re-assessment period, even if the failed assessment took place in semester 1.

 

  1. Re-assessment details (dates, times and assessment type) will normally be published in the module handbook or on My Beckett.

 

  1. If you have to do a re-assessment of any type and your mark is lower than in the original assessment the higher mark will be counted.

 

  1. If you receive mitigation for the original assessment, you will be expected to

 

complete the re-assessment topic not the original assessment.

 

13

 

 

  1. If you are required to complete a reassessment arising out of cheating, plagiarism or unfair practice then your mark will also be capped. The level of the cap will be determined by the Unfair Practice Board. (This would apply for all types of assessment).

 

Re-submission of Coursework

 

  1. Re-assessment details will be published in the module handbook or on My Beckett; do not assume that the assessment will be the same and that you will be re-doing the original assignment.

 

  1. If you have the opportunity to do a coursework resubmission your mark will be capped at 40% – Unless you have received Mitigation for the piece of coursework.

 

Resubmission of Presentations, Practicals & Class Tests

 

  1. If you have to do a practical; presentation or class test of any type information can be found in the module handbook or on My Beckett but the module leader will arrange and inform you of the assessment date, time and location.
