Modes of Study 

Lectures
Lectures are the traditional method of university teaching and are used to give information to larger numbers of students.  Lectures are held in ACN’s lecture rooms.  ACN lecture rooms are equipped with modern teaching facilities including video and data projection equipment and viewing screens.

Tutorials
These are small groups that allow students to discuss work in more depth, led by a lecturer or tutor. Tutorial groups are held once a week.  These sessions are designed to give students the opportunity to ask questions and develop ideas and students are expected to actively participate in the discussions. 


Assessment Methods

Methods of assessment can vary for each unit but they can include written assessments and essays, presentations, group work, practical work and examinations.  In general, formal examinations contribute to 70% of assessment for each subject, with internal assessment making up 30%. Details of subject assessment are outlined in the Subject Guide for each unit.
