comments of Learning and Teaching Committee in paper CSC03-P31:
“It was suggested that new programme proposals
should be accompanied by a module by module summary (on a single side of A4) of
the assessment requirements, which would show up any inconsistencies between
modules in terms of the assessment tasks required and the student effort
associated with them. It was agreed
that there should be a limit on the time allowed to elapse between obtaining
strategic approval for a programme proposal and the submission of the
operational detail. These matters were
referred to CSC for further consideration.”
