LSBU Business School has established links with a number of organisations including:
The acquisition of knowledge and understanding is delivered through a wide variety of strategies.
Lectures will where appropriate, deliver key topic areas across all academic Levels. Where possible, guest speakers from business and academia will bring specialisms and real world contextualisation.
Interactive seminars and workshops support the lectures and will have a strong focus on small group activities to encourage the active participation of students throughout the academic year, developing peer learning, the sharing of knowledge and support amongst the diverse student body.
Examples of activities students will engage with during seminars are: question practice and case study analysis to reinforce and contextualise key lecture topics, debate and discussion. There is greater emphasis on acquisition of knowledge of process thus question practice and repetition of process are key to learning.
An integrated formative and summative assessment and feedback process are a key component to a student’s independent acquisition of knowledge and understanding.
Self-managed learning activities to supplement and consolidate classroom based activity include: reading texts and relevant journals, application of knowledge to additional problem based exercises, engaging in coursework, group discussion, review of key topics and examination preparation where appropriate. Many of these activities are supported by the VLE.
