This is a blended learning course with supportive and structured learning activities on Canvas (Virtual Learning Environment, VLE).The online materials and face-to-face components of the module are integrated into a complimentary learning experience, which is both engaging and relevant, and resources are up to date and tailored with knowledge relevant to the industry and employability skilss needed for gainful employment following studies.

Resouces are accessible online and each  Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) Homepage sets expectations and includes an orientation to help you understand how to successfully navigate the different online components of the module and prepare for the face-to-face meetings. 

The structure of each VLE topic follows a standard Business School layout to ensure consistency and familiarity for students and to help you navigate the different modules you will be studying. 

The VLE Pages are used to present learning inputs and related activities with a narrative flow; content is structured into bite sized inputs and activities, inclusive of any Panopto recorded slides.

The learning material will be contextualised by the UK Management College lecturers to reflect the local and regional context. Students also have formative opportunities for feedback as part of their teaching and learning.

The workshop and activity-based approach to learning enables multiple opportunities for formative feedback and Regular opportunities are built in for formative feedback in class and online. For summative assessments on modules with more than one tutor a marking rubric is used to ensure consistency and you will receive summative feedback via Canvas within four working weeks of submission. Your feedback may be written, oral or audio-visual in nature.

Blended learning lends itself to enquiry-based learning - this puts less emphasis on the lecture method of teaching and more on empowering you to solve problems, evaluate situations, research topics or apply principles, which is more appropriate to business education. Face-to-face sessions are delivered in workshop mode with a set of task-based activities, which draw on the online content, and enable you to practically and critically explore the topic individually and in small groups.

Opportunities are built in for you to collaborate in peer-to-peer learning activities. This could include things such as small groups using a flipped learning approach, small group case study analysis, student-led assessment unpacking, group discussions, student-led seminars and problem-based learning.

The modules are developed with Universal Design in mind, and to meet accessibility standards. At UKMC our Student Success Tutors are also qualified to a level of degree level support. SST's are able to support understanding and learning outside of classes, such as academic skills and engagement activities.
