Summary of Module |
---|
The module aims to facilitate a critical awareness of issues around inclusion and exclusion in sport and physical activity. It will support students in developing skills and knowledge of inclusive practices within sport development and coaching contexts. The students will explore various ways of adapting sport and physical activity to better serve the needs of diverse population groups e.g. people with disabilities, older people, children from areas of low SES, who may not otherwise be able to access or benefit from sport and physical activity.

Face-To-Face
Term used to describe the traditional classroom environment where the students and the lecturer meet synchronously in the same room for the whole provision.
Blended
A mode of delivery of a module or a programme that involves online and face-to-face delivery of learning, teaching and assessment activities, student support and feedback. A programme may be considered “blended” if it includes a combination of face-to-face, online and blended modules. If an online programme has any compulsory face-to-face and campus elements it must be described as blended with clearly articulated delivery information to manage student expectations
Fully Online
Instruction that is solely delivered by web-based or internet-based technologies. This term is used to describe the previously used terms distance learning and e learning.
HybridC
Online with mandatory face-to-face learning on Campus
HybridO
Online with optional face-to-face learning on Campus
Work-based Learning
Learning activities where the main location for the learning experience is in the workplace.
