B1. Demonstrate knowledge and understanding of multimedia concepts, principles and theories. B2. Use such knowledge in multimedia system modelling, requirements analysis and design. B3. Perform critical evaluation and testing for a multimedia system. B4. Deploy appropriate methods and tools for the development of a multimedia system. B5. Apply appropriate research methods to conduct multimedia system related research. Teaching, learning and assessment methods used to enable outcomes to be achieved and demonstrated Cognitive skills are developed throughout the programme.Specifically, skill 1 is developed through tutorial group discussion, teamwork, coursework, projects, and presentations.Skills 2, 3 and 4 are developed through laboratory work, coursework, and projects.Skill 5 is developed through coursework, projects, and guided independent study. Assessment Assessment of cognitive skills is through written examinations (1, 2), laboratory work (2-4), coursework reports (1-5), and/or project work, reports and presentations (1-5). Professional practical skills C1. Develop and evaluate a multimedia system. C2. Manage multimedia system projects. C3. Use a wide range of computing facilities effectively. C4. Work individually and/or as a team member. Teaching, learning and assessment methods used to enable outcomes to be achieved and demonstrated Practical skills are developed throughout the programme. Coursework and projects are designed to provide practical opportunities for students to work independently and in groups.Specifically, skills 1, 2 and 3 are developed through laboratory work, coursework, and project work.Skill 4 is developed through individual and group coursework, laboratory work, and project work. Assessment Assessment of practical skills is normally by coursework (1-4) and projects (1-4). Transferable / key skills D1. Use information technology, e.g. Web and Internet, for effective information retrieval. D2. Apply numerical skills to cases involving a quantitative dimension. D3. Communicate effectively by written or verbal means. D4. Plan and manage learning and development. Teaching, learning and assessment methods used to enable outcomes to be achieved and demonstrated Key skills are developed throughout the programme in a variety of forms.Specifically, skill 1 is developed through a combination of research-related coursework, guided independent study, and projects.Skill 2 is developed through study of technical methods, examinations, coursework, and projects.Skill 3 is developed through report writing for coursework and projects, written examinations, teamwork, presentations, and group discussion.Skill 4 is developed via the management of learning tasks and deadlines for coursework and projects. Assessment Key skills are assessed as part of coursework (1-4), projects(1-4), written examinations (2, 3), and presentations (3). 10. Route/Pathway/Field requirements, levels, modules, credits and awards Study modes The programme is offered in full-time mode with the possibility of part-time attendance. The course normally lasts for one year for full-time and two years for part-time. Programme structures The programme is modular in construction. Modules are 15 credits (equivalent to 150 hours of study) for each taught module, with an individual project module of 60 credits. Full-time and part-time students normally study 60 and 30 credits per semester respectively, and then undertake a project once they have obtained 120 credits from taught modules. There are core (compulsory) modules plus a number of option modules in each semester. Programme: 21866-2000001740 Plan: 01.04 Start date of programme - plan: 20-AUG-04

Students with non-standard entry qualifications are also encouraged to apply. 13 Information about assessment regulations 14 Indicators of quality: 15 Support for students and their learning 16 Methods for evaluating and improving the quality and standards of teaching and learning Subject standards for all taught programmes of study are specified using an outcome based learning model. Attainment is measured against the standard and individual student performance is moderated at assessment boards. This involves both internal moderation (by LJMU staff and/or partner institution staff) and external moderation (by External Examiners). Internal annual programme self-assessment is informed by broad ranging student feedback, external examiners and academic staff who conduct module review. External quality assessment by Professional Statutory Regulatory Bodies and the Quality Assurance Agency for Higher Education confirms that standards are set at the appropriate level and that quality of learning opportunities are subject to continuing improvement. The quality of teaching is assured through staff review and staff development Programme: 21866-2000001740 Plan: 01.04 Start date of programme - plan: 20-AUG-04
