Assessment Criteria (Learning objectives covered – all)
Level 4 is the first stage on the student journey into undergraduate study. At Level 4 students will be developing their knowledge and
understanding of the discipline and will be expected to demonstrate some of those skills and competences. Students are expected to express
their ideas clearly and to structure and develop academic arguments in their work. Students will begin to apply the theory which underpins the
subject and will start to explore how this relates to other areas of their learning and any ethical considerations as appropriate. Students
will begin to develop self-awareness of their own academic and professional development.
