Theassignment for this module is split into two components. 

1. Assessment will be based on the students’ participation in Asynchronous Discussions hosted on the Virtual Learning Environment – Moodle (40% of total mark)

2. A case study of 3,000 words critically discussing issues in health and social care in relation to a person with co-morbid long-term conditions (60% of total mark)

Assessed discussions

There are 3 Assessed discussions for you to participate (the first one of these is a practice).

Everyone should make an initial posting in each of the discussions which lays out your point of view, then you should all read a selection of your fellow students’ initial postings and respond to at least one of these, giving your opinion on their contribution supported by what you have already learnt and your own experience. Review follow-up comments to your own original posting and respond to these. As this is an academic discussion you will need to support your points or arguments. You will do this by citing textbook/journal references and online resources to support your point of view. Critical reading of the sources identified in individual posts will be required as not all sources will be academically sound. 

Each of these will be open for 6 days to enable full participation.

Please note that these are tracked and form part of the monitoring of student engagement.

Practice assessed discussion

Discuss the impact that having over 15 million people in the United Kingdom with a long-term condition might have on our communities?

Summary of the Summative Assessment – Submission Requirements and Regulations

*Deadline submission date and time indicate the
latest point of submission

Students are permitted to submit summative assessments before these deadlines. Attention should be paid to the availability/ provision of academic support sessions prior to any submission.

In the event of an emergency

In the event of a University emergency which will knowingly result in loss of access to Moodle/Turnitin, you shall be informed via announcement in Moodle, and advised of alternative arrangements for assessment submission.
No student will be penalised because of a University systems failure out with their control.

Coursework may not normally be submitted more than one calendar week after the due date

Late submission of coursework without prior agreement
Coursework submitted after the due date without prior agreement with the Module Co-ordinator will be penalised by the reduction of ten points from the 100 available, from the mark awarded provided that the work is submitted within one calendar week of the due date.
NB If the module is a pass/fail grade and there is a late submission without prior agreement, the penalty shall be that a fail is recorded.

Agreed extension to coursework deadlines
1. Extensions to coursework deadlines on the basis of good cause may be determined by the Module Co-ordinator, without penalty.
1. The agreed revised date for submission will thereafter be deemed to be the due date for submission.
1. The penalty for ‘late submission of coursework’ will then apply to any work submitted after the agreed revised date for submission, provided that the work is submitted within one calendar week of the due date

The due date for submission should normally lie within the University trimesters dates

What does this mean?
This means extension to coursework can only be granted if this permits management within the timescales for presenting results to Subject Panels

Extenuating Circumstances Statements (ECS)
The University recognises that, from time to time, you may encounter issues which may prevent you from being able to submit or undertake an assessment. Where this is the case, you can submit an Extenuating Circumstances Statement (ECS) for consideration. The ECS will be forwarded to the University’s Subject Panel who will take account of this declaration in recording your module marks. 
Students submitting a claim 
The University’s Extenuating Circumstances Statements process is online and can be accessed via self-service banner.
If you require assistance with this process you can seek help from the Students’ Association www.sauws.org.uk/advice, or contact staff at the Student Hub or Student Link on your campus. If you have any problems accessing the online procedure or documentation, please email extcircum@uws.ac.uk
