HS1932 - Biopsychosocial Development across the life course

HS1932-PRD1-ALV1

To enable you to address your area of knowledge in relation to the learning outcomes, you will work within your field of nursing (Adult, Mental Health and Child nursing). 
The variety of teaching and learning methods used in this module will provide a safe environment for you to explore your own knowledge base, issues, worries and concerns.  
This module will be delivered using several different approaches. As an example, you may have a combination of in-person sessions (i.e., face-to-face on campus), and/or online synchronous sessions (participants are engaged at the same time online) and online asynchronous guided activities (you need to plan time to engage with these). These may include viewing recorded lectures and/or other online resources, reading materials, undertaking quizzes, completing exercises and engaging on forums.  
In addition to these teaching delivery approaches, you will undertake your own independent study, which may involve wider reading, research and preparation for assessment. Please see the Moodle page and programme handbook for further information.
